    Carl Froch hasn't ducked anybody at Super Middleweight.

    You don't see him moaning about taking drug test, not traveling, saying speak to my promoter, only fighting in his home town, talking about his health, and any other excuses fighters make to avoid big fights happening.

    He gives the public what they want to see. He could've took the easy way out and fought Chavez Jr rather than Groves in a rematch- especially when Groves was pricing himself out- however he gave us what we want.

    Froch has get a set of nuts you only ever find in Brits.

    Honorable mentions to Mexicans though: Until recently (when I get the impression he's achieved everything he wants in his career other than a belt in a 4th weight class, which none of the guys calling him out have) Juan Manuel Marquez has been willing to get it on with anybody.

    Abner Mares' is someone who strikes me as willing to fight anybody in his own weight class. Other than not fighting Brook, Khan deserves a mention too- perhaps unwisely (i.e. offering Bradley 50/50 of everything when Bradley wouldn't draw anything in the UK)

    Miguel Cotto. Some might say he ducked Canelo. But if he, by any chance beats Sergio, Canelo will be next.

    Of course I don't think he will beat Sergio. Too small. Same mistake Tito did fighting Bhop and Jones
