Showtime deal for Froch

I am a fan of Froch as a fighter, but his gob doesn't do him any favours.

Then again, thats Hennessy Sports fighters for you!

I'm not sure about his nickname 'the Cobra' - I was thinking more 'rattlesnake' for the left hand which seems to shake constantly when in a defensive position.

 

Over time people will warm to him when they realise that the big mouth comments are always accompanied by a wry smile. Add to this the fact that he is a real talent and exciting to watch.

 

being from nottingham i have watched froch a few times. i have always backed him. hes mouthy. but hes funny with it IMO and how often do u see talent boxers with big mouths. and plus he had a brillliant quote in one of his fights


" ill smoke his boots" pure class

 

I don't think anyone who has seen Froch can dispute his ability.

I certainly don't.

 

The problem with the likes of Froch and Witter is they like to talk about how good they are, but aren't proactive enough in proving it. Instead of using the 'X ,Y & Z are avoiding me' routine, they would be better off getting a move on themselves. Froch is thirty years old, I hope he beats Inkin then gets a shot at the winner of Bute-Joppy.

 

I've been a big fan ever since his pro debut
