    simple truth, if froch was with frank warren or frank maloney he would be a huge british star, but he is not!

    basically this

    Don't think there was even any British coverage for Froch's title defense against Jermaine Taylor :twisted:

    Its a shame more people have not been able to see his fights.He is good to watch but his management team are ****.Most people are fed up with having to pay out to sky all the time,never mind coughing up more to some over station.He should be on sky or better still one of the free channels.Those in charge of his career are not doing there jobs properly.

    Nobody knows this fights on because it is on an obscure ppv cable channel. Needs new management.

    its true but without the right promotion, he won't get that. the only person to get famous without a big name promoter is David Haye, and he had to beat the Biggest ever Heavyweight champ to get his stardom! he wasn't that well known even as the unified (or whatever you guys want to call it) cruiserweight champ

    Haven't heard anything about it from anyone in UK. Shows how much he lived in Calzaghes shadow! Maybe if he would of beat Kessler he might of been more known. But even SKY don't seem interested and this is a massive fight!

    Reading the comments from the Brits on here I'll have to disagree with this statement.

    Personally if Froch only gets a fourth of the coverage as David Hayeducker... than that is a a sad scene.

    Fat Mick that bad?

    If he is known, people think he's called Frock.

    frank warren may have made froch more of a household name for sure...but he would never have matched froch with level of fighters that froch has been fighting recently.
    he would have done a calzage with him built him up with wins over nobodys...
