    Being from the UK, we don't seem to get the fight 360 programmes (that I know of) and I just recently watched all the episodes back to back on the web. Anyway, what I came away with that I didn't expect was how funny Froch is. The dead pan way that he says 'no-one rattles the cage of the cobra'. As Dirrell tries to keep him waiting cracked me up. Was wondering if there was any other funny quotes that he has made and I've missed. I think the guy is comedy gold. :good

    "26 have tried, 26 had a gameplan, but guess what Calzaghe, there is no a blueprint on how to beat me"

    "Respect me as a man, we played cricket together"

    "I can't wait to hit him with this right hand, right on the jaw section, and render him unconscious"

    "As an amateur you got 12 3 minute rounds, for the first round you can afford to take a look, sit back have a look at your opponent. If he’s boxing and moving he thinks he’s clever, he jabs and moves, he’s got a fast right hand, he can box he can fight a little bit, he’s cocky he’s lary, thinks he is the new Roy Jones. He’s going to keep me at arm’s reach for as long as he can, I’m just going to let him go, I’m going to let him run if he wants to run, ill cut the ring of and close him down, but soon he better be ready for trench warfare because I’m going to take it to him, cut that ring off and have a toe to toe battle"

    We met him a couple of times in a bar in Nottingham, he really does refer to himself as the cobra and talks about himself in the third person.

    Also, his woman is surprisingly un-hot in the flesh.

    Nice bloke though. Shame about the handspeed.

    I once met him out on the town in the midlands and he didn't half go on about "The cobra this..." and "the cobra that...". It was bizarre, like talking to a living cliche. Also that skank he's with ain't all that to be honest.

    I agree if you see her ringside in the pascal fight she wasn't anythign special. That being said apperently she's a model or something in which case I wouldn't be suprised if she ain't ****. Most of them can look good when they do themselves up but the rest of the time they look like ****.

    'In his mind can he (Kessler) really beat the Cobra? when his head hits the pillow at night does he think he can beat me? Im not so sure'

    'when he sits down on that stool, he will think, you know what? im finished now, this aint for me anymore'

    He cracks me up!

    Surprised. I've met him too and he was down to earth, had a laugh with a couple of my mates and never referred to himself as "The Cobra" once. Met him at the bar at the Ally Pally before the Witter-Corley fight.
