    Both very tough punchers with no style. Technically not that great but they just keep winning!

    Froch takes a lot of **** especially on the general forum (actually so does Marciano!) but if he keeps on coming up with the win will he ever get real respect?

    Surely The Rock wasn't the betting favourite going into some fights?

    I maybe wrong but I ***THINK*** Marciano was the betting outsider going into the Louis fight. I can't think of any other of his big fights were he might not be the favourite....:think

    What are you on about? Im the one in the middle!

    Perhaps I should clarify by saying that watching some Marciano fights (without the hindsight of knowing he was never defeated) might lead you to think it would only be a matter of time until he got beat. A la Froch!

    I see Froch more as the new Sweet Pea. His movement in the ring screams class.

    Froch is more Willie Pepp. He choses to get hit only to prove his manliness. Warrior.
