atsch mccloskey is all that needs to be said really but, judah didn't want to fight. MCcloskey throws hardly any punches and was lucky to get the decision over prescott. Malliginaggi although I like him can't punch for ****. How can you compare them to frochs live opponents.
You can find flaws with Froch's opponents. When it's all said and done, I consider the opponents equal across the board. You must remember: Khan is the most skilled in his division, whereas Froch is not the most skilled at 168.
It's not even close though, frochs resume destroys khans. FROCHS KHANS Glen johnson Zab judah Arthur Abraham Paul mCcloskey Mikkel kessler Paul mallignaggi Andre dirrell Marcos maidana Jermain taylor Dmitriv salita
The Abraham and Johnson wins are not as impressive as most people claim. They are good wins, but not great.
Craigseventy is right, there really isn't a comparison between Khan and Froch's recent opponents in terms of their ratings in respective divisions and in terms of the threat they posed. Khan shouldn't have made the Maidana fight so hard for himself and Judah was being made out to be a bigger threat than he actually was IMO so in theory Khan should have been expected to win all of them last 5 fights. Froch on the otherhand, with maybe the exception of the Johnson fight, hasn't been a clear favourite in a fight for a long time. So to come out with only 1 defeat is more impressive IMO. Plus, Drinker by saying Khan is more skilled than Froch doesn't add anything to your point; in fact it weakens it because Khan therefore should have been expected to win all of them fights whereas Froch has produced quite a few upsets in his run.
It's not even about winning or losing. Froch could have lost all those fights and he'd still have had better opposition. This isn't something I even want to discuss because it's so obvious it's actually annoying.
It's only annoying because you can't accept someone else's opinion. I feel the gap between Froch's level of opponents and Khan's is not as great as you claim. Glen Johnson was 42 with 14 losses, who was behind on the cards against Green before the dubious knockout. He had fought at 175 for ten years. If he does well against Bute then I will change my mind. Abraham as been badly exposed at 168. Dirrell schooled him 6 months before Froch and Ward easily beat him 6 months later. You may rate these two wins highly, but I don't. Khan beating Kotelnyk is at least even with Froch beating Pascal.
Johnson is a tough night for anyone. The thing with every froch fight is, he's fought the guys that are at the top of his weight division excluding johnson (not sure where he was ranked tbh). Where the **** did mCcloskey come from? Head to head there is no argument but yea, you are entitled to your opinion. Who do you rate in the same league as kessler, and dirrell from khans list of opposition.
