    annoying as **** out of the ring, pretty cool inside of it. has a tendency to be sloooooooooow and swing very wide but when he tightens up and relies on his boxing he does pretty well.

    Definitely like him. Puts on entertaining fights, comes into fights in peak condition, is charismatic in his own way, and fights high quality opposition. Hard not to like him.

    I can't speak for the rest of us, But I don't see or understand the "WAR" between the UK/U.S. when it comes to fighter's...

    Fighters are Fighters regardless to me, If I am able to watch you fight I will.
    To answer the question, Yes I respect Froch. (Tho I have picked against him early on)

    for some of the uk fans, this is all they have. they pop a boner everytime a fighter from the uk beats an american. if you make a basketball comparison of uk boxing history to the u.s., the u.s. is like the nba and the uk is like the d-league. every once in a while someone from the d-league makes the nba and has a good career but overall mostly it's just full of second rate players.

    Froch is the one Brittish fighter that I actually really like. I think he's a vastly underrated fighter.

    He's the real thing. I like him. He talks but actually backs it up, comes to fight and oddly enough has some skill behind his awkward, somewhat ugly style.
