Past 4 fights: Pascal Taylor Dirrell Kessler Next: Abraham If he wins, then either Green/Johnson/Dirrell Replacement or Ward. Who else would consecutively fight such level of opposition?
Can't disagree with that. Strange isn't it, the likes of Haye get backed to the hilt by Sky despite inactivity and cherry picking but Froch, who will fight anyone who stands in his way, only gets televised on obscure channels and is a complete no-name amongst casual fans and the general public in the UK
I agree, he gets a lot of stick because hes not the most skillful of fighters but the guy never ducks anyone, is normally in exciting matches and is constantly fighting the top ranked boxers around him. Fair enough he deserves grief for the fact that he bitched alot after the Kessler loss. Everyone complains about people ducking, being unwilling to fight the best etc but when a boxer is willing to do this he gets loads of stick aswell - point is you cant win no matter what you do
Why does he get so many haters? Slick he ain't, but he's easy the most exciting fighter out there... ...this side of SNV Froch/Pascal brought back memories of Benn/McClennan
That was an awesome night, didn't expect it at all. Especially after his last bout, if I remember rightly, wasn't too exciting.
Good thread. Yeah boxing for sure needs more guys like this chap; Taylor away for his 1st defence? **** man this guy is crazy! In a shitty year of boxing he gives us hope. Imagine what his esume will be like aftr the S6 ends and he fights for another 2/3 years. Sickness.
BOOM! He really should get more exposure in the UK than Haye, who only fights Narcalepsy-ridden fighters.
