Truth hurts... Look at the difference Mayweather made to Hatton in one fight, his old trainer was just getting him into shape and then letting him fight, no tactics, techniques, nothing. You can see footage of Hattons training under Graham; hit the heavy bag, do weights, run, thats it. Answer: do you look at Ricky hatton and Carl Froch and think you're watching well-schooled, technically sound fighters who are making the most of their abilities? I don't know why you're getting so pissy anyway; I'm saying theyre good but would undoubtedly be better if they trained and were schooled to a level that would match their innate abilities.
Froch seems like he has simply made up his mind to fight the way he chooses regardless of whether his trainer can school him in the finer points or not. Considering his record,he hasn't exactly been shown why it is that he really needs to broaden his boxing knowledge.....till tonight perhaps. He may come to realize how perilously close he sailed his ship to the rocks tonight. But then again.....
I'm not aware of any British commentators or fans for that matter who have described him as such.They are aware of his flaws.
