    That'll be the referee who counted long to enable Taylor to struggle to his feet after the knockdown and the judges, two of whom had Taylor up by generous margins?

    Froch knew he had to take care of business himself fighting away from home, and he did. Dirrell realised too late and couldn't do it. If he'd fought 12 rounds with the attitude he had in the last two, maybe he would.

    just so you know the news of the world is put to press before the fight therefore if he did say that he said it before the Dirrell fight.

    While it is funny Froch says this after last night, he still speaks the truth. Not that it would matter. AA would beat Froch anywhere in the universe.

    Read thread before posting. He didn't say it after last night.

    Whether you believed Dirrell was robbed last night. The one thing that is certain is that taking a punch is about all Froch can do.

    The Super 6 draw states that Froch v Abraham is meant to be staged in the UK so Froch is within his rights to say that he won't give up the advantage given to him by the luck of the draw.

    For examples Froch is meant to fight Dirrell (in UK), Kessler (in Denmark), Abraham (in UK).

    Abraham - Taylor (in Germany), Dirrell (in USA), Froch (in UK).

    Kessler - Ward (in USA), Froch (in Denmark), Taylor (in Denmark).

    So the guy wins multiple amateur titles,
    wins british, commonwealth and world belts and the only thing he can do is take a shot. Give me a ****ing break.

    The guy may be a bit sluggish with is movement but he has power in his fists and an arsenal of shots. You dont get to be a world champ(knocking out guys like taylor) by having a good chin!

    Still doesn't change much in my post. Only timeline, and completely beside my point.

    Should Kessler give up his draw advantage of fighting Froch in Denmark and just give it over to the UK then?

    In addition to some coaching on boxing basics, Froch need to learn when to keep his mouth shut.

    His boxing arsenal can be improved. He has decent power and a decent chin.

    He has very poor defence and foot movement, but with years of coaching, these could be improved.

    His offence is none too good either, but again, it could benefit from coaching.




    As far as interviews and talking to the press, he needs a lot of remediation.

    I've only seen four of his interviews, but each one was worse than the previous one.

    He has a seriously inflated view of his abilities. This results in him frequently talking out of his arsehole, and trashtalking much better (and sometimes retired) fighters.

    To a neutral like myself, who was trying to decide where I weigh in on the man, the impression isn't good.

    He clearly lacks humility, and that's unfortunate as he has much to be humble about.


    I wouldn't describe him as a **** or a dickhead, YET.

    But I think he's in for a rude awakening in the upcoming year and a half.

    What a joke. :rofl

    Froch is given a robbery on a silver platter in England, then complains about the "strange judging in Germany".

    What about the strange judging in the UK? :patsch
