most arrogant ***** relative to talent P4P in the world. at least other arrogant boxers like floyd, roy and toney, etc- are all brilliant in their own ways. this guys is a ****in tool and is mediocre. he was getting outboxed by taylor before he pulled that out- and he walks around like he knew he was going to win. he seems like a smart, educated guy. complete wanker. his girls fit. gawd i hope kesslers up to the task of humbling this guy- not exceptional in any way shape form.
Judging from the general tenor of this thread, I'd say it's a good place to see if I can articulate my thoughts on Carl The Clumsy. First, he won a vacant title. He is a paper titlist. He is not a world champion until he proves he is, and so far he hasn't done that. Second, in his first defense he came within 14 seconds of losing. In my opinion two fights with BHop, and two fights with Pavlik, under a string of different trainers, screwed JT up mentally and physically. In others words, Froch came within 14 seconds of losing to an already damaged version of Taylor. Third, in his second defense he just barely squeaked out a controversial split decision over a prospect who was green as a damn gourd. And, a better ref would have disqualified Froch in that fight. And yet, the man talks like he is Jones, Ali, and Tyson all tied up in one package, and the most proven fighter on the planet. He's a wack job. Simple as that.
Okay, I get it Froch is confident and has a super inflated vision of himself compared to his skill set. Not unlike most boxers, though Froch's ego is a little bigger and his skill set a little lower. What is so stupid is that he is talking crap about a fighter he beat. Despite the controversy he still got to go home with the title, the 0 on his record, and the official win. So why the hell talk crap about the fighter he beat. Why kick a man why he's down? Such bull****!
Dirrell did fight him like that, thats the truth, but he did not fight AA like that at all. That is what Froch, does though, he's like Floyd, he just talks sh!t about all other boxers. Hopefully Kessler, gets the 3 points.
Because of what went on between him and dirrell away from the microphones no doubt. He has touched upon it in 360 saying how nasty dirrell was and i happen to agree with him he does come across as a childish weasel.
Its hard to hate Froch. I honestly think he's cool as ****! Lot of charisma to him, yet he comes across as an intelligent and down to earth guy. Still.... Kessler will beat him.
Fightcamp 360 camera's never picked up Dirrell being a mouthy **** all the time, spouting racist bile and generally being a Grade A *****. Notice Froch doesn't bad mouth Taylor, and the fact he became good friends with Pascal after they fought. Some of you need to change the perspective you are looking at Froch from. Yes he is limited, but at least he is challenging himself by going for the toughest fights out there, which is what everyone wants to see boxers doing. And while Calzaghe may have been the far more talented fighter....i'm certain he would never have signed up to participate in this tournament.
WTF> man so much hate for froch i think this tournament needs fighters like this. Dirrell does the same dumb ****!!! anyways i see Froch vs Kessler50/50 but clearly kessler has the better skills
Froch bad mouths Dirrell so bad because deep down he knows he didn't really win that fight, and he rips on Dirrell as much as he possibly can in order to make him feel better about him self. Kessler had his ass handed to him by Ward....However he needs to forget about that fight. In a few weeks he wont have Andre ward in front of him, he will have an absolute dork in front of him who dosen't have 1/1000th the skills that ward does. Mikkel Kessler......for the love of god.....please be the man to shut this idiots mouth for good. And on a side note.....as you can see I hate Froch, however i have to admit he is GREAT for this tournament.
Although it is misplaced, you gotta like the guy's confidence. That being said, it will be funny when Kessler and Abraham both beat him and send him out of the tourney.
