I've been banned for 2 years for posting a fully dressed woman in IB's RBR boxing thread. So nothing scares me anymore :yep
Did you miss the video directly before that showing Froch state that Lucian "I've never fought anyone of note" Bute priced himself out the fight?
Of course, everything Froch says is the truth and everything bute says is bull****. In case you haven't noticed, Froch has just changed of promoter. How about Froch trying to lowball Bute? How about Hennessy having messed things up? nobody knows but I know something: Froch is used to talk and talk and talk and everything that goes out of his mouth is subject to doubt.
Froch is known for being a particularly straight talker and a man who backs up his words, Bute doesn't have that luxury yet. Fact. As for Hennessy, he got what any promoter should get if they have a client like Carl Froch who while holding a coveted WBC strap and fighting the string of fighters he's fought recently, still can't secure the guy a decent TV deal ... so I hardly think he was playing hardball with Butes people. Let's not forget that Froch had to travel abroad for his very 1st defense to have a crack at JT.
you just don't know, man. You don't know. And Froch is always exagerating. If you can't see that, you have a serious problem. He is not a straight talker. If he was, he would admit he lost to Kessler, instead of whining a year later. He would admit he had trouble with Dirrell, instead of trying to convince poeple he was dominant. Froch like to say he fight abroad but each of his 2 fights abroad in the first stage of the super 6, he whined about something and threated not to fight. Yo call that talking straight? Just don't believe Froch when he talks and everything will be pleasant.
Taylor was his mandatory and Froch knew he would have lost the purse bid. Don't make him a heroe because he has been rational, getting the maximum cash of a situation he couldn't control.
