    I dunno...Froch pretty much shoots from the hip. I doubt he even has a PR man.

    I think the thing with Khan is he's not actually very clever which makes him sound worse and like I said, easily influenced by other people like Roach who also likes to talk so much bollocks in the press. How many times do you see a big headline from Roach talking some new ****? I think Khan's got worse in this respect since he went to America and he's been affected by them as a media personality.

    He's definitely not overly malicious though, daft mainly.

    Actually I just remembered. During the build up to the Mayorga fight. Mayorga and Shane were talking **** to each other saying "I'm your daddy" and all that **** and Shane called Oscar his son cuz he beat him:lol: I wonder if DLH said anything. Mayorga was like "okay son, tell YOUR son Oscar that after I beat your ass I'm coming after him"

    Yeah okay, spin it any way you want to. The trouble is, he needs to fight now.

    This is what I mean. You don't sense any bitterness or malice.

    I've said this all along. You can see when he talks that he'd rather say anything than leave a pause. He has no brain to mouth filter when he's being interviewed.

    Spot on, maybe he being hyper active as a kid as something to do with it. As he grows in popularity he really needs a PR and needs to think before he speaks.

    Sometimes honesty is not the best thing.

    The whole thing with Froch was started by Froch as well. Saying he has a glass jaw and doubting his abilities. It might be true but you have to kind of expect a response if you are going to be as blunt as that about somebody. Yet somehow Khan gets most of the **** for taking part in this tit for tat.

    Wasn't it around the time they both had fights coming up and Froch was trying to piggyback on Khan for a bit extra publicity?

    Yep when a guy much older than you a few weights above you starts saying these things, do you blame Khan for responding?

    Froch did start it all but Khan shouldn't had said anything after froch's loss to Kessler, he should have said nothing like Calzaghie did cos he just came across as a ***** kicking a man when he's down. Khan just lacks that little bit of maturity

    :think

    Really ? The only comments I remember Froch saying was in the video that I posted a week back. Froch said it would be very hard for him to come back from a defeat like that. He said that his chin was a worry and at the top level you must have a decent chin whicch he didn't think Khan did. It wasn't said in a nasty way. ITV asked about 10 people the likes of McKenzie, McGuigan, Herbie Hide David Haye etc etc. Froch was not in anyway critical. In fact Herbie Hide ripped him a bit, didn't see Khan crying about that did you.

    And then when Froch was asked about the Kotelnik fight he said "I didn't watch it but a few of my mates did and said it was pretty boring so I doubt i'll watch it". Not a great comment but it's hardly something Kahn should be getting in this kind of verbal war over.

    he's a ***** and I hope he gets hammered..... The greatest thing is, it won't be long until my wish comes true :good

    No he shouldn't have done it was a bit silly.

    But then again the whole thing is a bit silly, 2 grown ass men that have nothing to do with each other taking little pops. They're like old women, its a bit embarrassing for British boxing so hopefully they STFU and just concentrate on their own business from now on.

    Why do we have to unite. Boxing is an individual sport where fighters fight for money. They are not representing their countries. Why don't we just support the guys we like?
