If Froch beats King Arthur tomorrow where does he go in your P4P list? Top five in mine, no other fighter has a better resume in the last two years. Thoughts?
Disagree on both counts. He might enter the bottom of my top 20, depending on how he wins. The Pascal he beat wasn't the same Pascal who beat Dawson. He didn't beat Taylor as convincingly as Pavlik or Abraham. I thought he lost pretty widely to Dirrell, and fought even with Kessler (after watching the fight three times, once I scored it 115-113 Kessler, once 114-114, once 115-113 Froch). And overall, I think Martinez and Pacquiao, at least, have both faced tougher opposition overall in the last couple years than Froch.
Froch has faced Pascal Won Taylor Won Dirrell Won Kessler Lost AA ? He has fought more top fighters than JC did in 44 fights. Deserves a top 10.
You have either taken a bang to the head or you are simply american. either way your disgusting vcash total renders your opinion worthless. Anyone with a proper opinion like to comment?
If he knocks AA out/beats him well, I'd give him a place in my top 15 perhaps. If he just scrapes by, somewhere between 20 and 25
With a win over AA, Froch would move into the teens for me. He's grown on me the last year or so, and he should put on another good show this weekend. However, I don't see him beating AA.
Regardless of his P4P ranking (for me, if he wins very impressively he might just scrape top 10) I'm with James Slater on this one - the guy wants to take on the very best, at home, in his opponent's backyard, or at a neutral venue, and gets involved in some absolutely brilliant fights. I'm not a huge froch fan, but i'm a boxing fan, and if you love boxing you should at the very least respect carl froch. There's too much BS, ducking, cherry-picking, arguments about who the PPV king is (who honestly gives a f*ck about that?!) around boxing these days and Carl's a genuine fighter who wants to put himself in with the very best. Good luck to him. I think King Arthur's gonna beat him though.
I'd have him in the top 10, he's beaten some good fighters over the last few years and doesn't duck or dodge any challenges.
So thats better than: Kessler (won yes not lost) Hopkins Eubank Jones Jr Mitchell Brewer Lacy Robin Reid NO!!! And if Froch wins hes below Kessler, whos below Ward, so he isn't top 2 in his division nevermind any P4P talk
