    Froch seems so spend a lot of time talking about other fighters. I wonder what will happen when Abraham knocks him senseless.

    I don't think that Froch would get bored counting Khan's bank balance against his???? :yep Could Froch put 20,000 into a respective arena on his doorstep??? :think

    I like Froch, the Trent FM is a great venue to watch boxing, but if he says Khan in boring, why does he have to say this??? He was very fortunate in his last contest to grind out the result he did..... he should let his hands do the talking IMO...:yep

    'Boring' is Harrison vs Williams 1. Froch would probably kill himself if he ever saw that.

    Khan wasn't boring.

    Luck = When prepapartion meets chance

    Has two good wins better than Khan 2 best wins.

    If Froch fought S. Mosley becuase he all of sudden decieded to move up a few weights.......would we not be slagging him off?

    Surely thats what happend with Barrera situation.

    And Kotlenik is for me a lessar fighter than Pascal

    At least Froch takes risks...........i believe the guy will deffo have a few losses on his record after the super six series.........but imagine Khan getting into a super six series with Mayweather, mosley, margarito,p.williams clottey, manny pacquaio, t. bradley, z. judah, etc

    Does Froch do nothing but run his mouth about british fighters, he was a like a bad rash all over calzaghe begging for a payday now he wants to get some coverage talking **** about khan.

    Yeah coebra (cross between sebastian coe and a bra. I refuse you the animal nickname) he should have left his weak chin out all day to make the fight more exiting for you, in your house in nottingham while you watch the ppv free online with alan rickman.

    I don't think anyone can really blame Khan for being "boring". If he tries to make an exciting fight there's a very good chance he'll get knocked out, particularly against a good opponent. He may as well play it safe and go quite far in his boxing career and make a lot of money rather than try and be exciting and get knocked out about 25% of the time.

    What the **** is Froch's point, he was close to getting beat in every round against Taylor and been a laughing stock over there.

    Khan fought a smart fight and won the title, that is enough for now.

    In future different tactics will come into play with renewed confidence.

    Khan blew ***an away with power and precision then outboxed the highly defensive Kotelnik who's never been stopped.He's doing well!!

    Khan has developed a really boring style but quite understandably.
    I won't blame him for it but I will find him dull.

    It's a sign of Amir Khan's standing that he is getting flak from other Pro's. If he was a mediocre fighter Froch wouldnt even offer an opinion oh him....if indeed Froch truley said those things

    I think its extremely harsh to dismiss Khan as a boring fighter on the evidence of one title fight, against a guy who is very cagey with a tight defense. If of course that is what Froch said. Im a fan of both fighters and they are both entertaining. Froch has been involved in the odd dull fight himself even though the last couple were exiting.

    Have to agree with Froch here.
    Should Khan stick to the tactics he employed vs Kotelnik I will be switching off. Based on that fight it looks like he's sacrificing power shots for tagging and i like my fighters to bang a bit.

    But he's still evolving as a boxer so I'm willing to give him a chance.

    According to 'Frankly Speaking' Froch said he never saw the fight, but his 'mates' said it was boring.

    Yes Froch's match with Taylor may have been more exciting for the viewers but from a boxers perspective he was 20 seconds away from losing a UD whereas Khan won more or less every round and easily won the match - I would rather win in the manner that Khan won than how Froch scraped his victory.

    I think Froch has a lot of bottle entering the super 6 but I'm not sure if he's winning ANY of his matches - maybe he should be worrying more about what he's got himself into rather than talking about everyone else.
