    Before the i post the exerts from the article let me tell you something about froch, he cries about not having the exposure, then why sign with such a shitty promoter in the first place? Also, ****** as big a **** he is said froch is known as a lay cuny when it comes to doing promotion stuff as is calzaghe, where as hatton and khan would always do what he asked, anyway.

    “For whatever reason, I’ve not had the exposure,” Froch says. He is so little recognised that he was not part of the Olympic torch relay as it passed through Nottingham and did not even know it was coming to his home town. “I’m not a big enough name to carry the Olympic torch.”

    You werent an olympian froch (obviosly crying because khan carried it), im sure a deserving person who was a former olympian and from the nottingham area carried it though.

    another one on haye coming out of retirement
    “It winds me up,” Froch says. “When people retire, they should stay retired. I was in Jamaica with David for two weeks after he said he was retired. He’s made his money.

    LOL, this is the same guy who was crying that calzaghe ducked him and is still calling for him to come out of retirement to this day!!! the pure ****tery of it!! JEALOUS THAT SOMEONE IS IN A HUGE DOMESTIC FIGHT BESIDES YOU FROCH? SOUNDS LIKE IT!!! Talking about hayes money and saying he is on the rich list sounds like he cares too much imo.

    Another one

    He is convinced he missed out on making Team GB for the 2000 Sydney Olympics because he was wrongly scored in the qualifying competition

    more excuses froch? when hae you ever just accepted a defeat and moved on?

    :patsch

    the thing is it seems ever other week this **** is reminding us that "HE HASNT GOT THE RECOGNITION HE DESERVES! lets be honest he isnt got much going for him in the looks department (despite having a good looking bird) so thats out the window (it helped guys like calz, haye, khan, brook, etc) and he hasnt got the charm of ricky, he signed with a shot promoter and stauyed with him for years was his own doing. now he is with matchroom and on sky he still wants to remind us? what does he want us to do? some sort of time travel to the past and praise him?

    Another idiot who doesn't understand how important context is, especially with regards to quotes.

    Are you suggesting he should not have carried the Olympic torch in Nottingham then?

    Has Froch forgotten the almost embarrassingly one sided boxing lesson Andre Ward gave him?

    From the link Mike Hunt posted...

    Froch Quote:
    "“I haven’t had the recognition I deserve,” he says. “You can go back to anybody’s career — Ricky Hatton, Joe Calzaghe, David Haye, Amir Khan, Chris Eubank, Nigel Benn, Steve Collins, Naseem Hamed. My record is better than all of theirs.
    “I’ve won against more unbeaten fighters than any of them, had more exciting fights."


    Is he taking the ****?
    I think Froch should go and watch tapes of Benn/McClellan, Eubank/Watson, Kelley/Hamed or even Khan/Maidana and then come back and tell me a "more exciting fight" he has had because I must have missed it.

    Reread it. He didn't say he had the most exciting fight but more exciting fights i.e. in number. He's probably right.

    first of all, calzaghe has beaten 5 unbeaten fighters, same as froch, just for the record. Calzaghe is a far superior fighter to froch, and imo would have wiped the floor with him.

    The guy is clearly jealous.
    the carl froch story is a bit strange. he has done everything, except hype fights, yet he still isnt popular. he fights the best, gives great fights etc.
    I can totally understand his frustration for not even getting recognised on his own street.

    i have a feeling its just the way God has it for him. he's done all he could to get recognised, but nothing happened.

    i would respect if he doesnt act so bitter, talking down hayes fight. david haye has to make a living too, why are you so bothered if hes making another few mil? its non of his business what david haye does

    I truly believe that Froch would have happily taken the place of a disabled youngster, local community unsung hero, or two actual olympic gold medalists just to feed his massive ego. Actually, he could have qualified to carry the torch just for being mentally ill, had he been nominated by his mum. The guy is sick in the head.
