    Danny doesn't come anywhere near close to Carl's achievements. no way he should be above him.

    Groves was only a huge underdog to anybody who clearly didn't know anything about him

    Froch p4p top ten? debatable, but you honestly cannot take anybody seriously who calls his record into question, we even have Jeff Lacy esque hindsight about how Bute was never any good, despite being a big favourite

    A lot of the p4p list is just a popularity contest.

    Excellent post mate :good

    And your spot on with both points.
    I think a lot of people thought Froch would walk through Groves, i also think Groves is getting a lot of added hype by the same people who thought this. I'm a Froch fan and i predicted that Groves would win the early rounds. I also said i wouldn't be surprised if he hurt Froch, although i didn't think he'd drop him.
    I don't pay much attention to P4P lists, and frochs inclusion could be considered debateable, but given that Broner was #6 before being exposed by Maidana, you can make an argument for putting FRoch in there based on resume.

    It seems like most people can see the HUGE technical deficiencies in Froch's game; his lack of clear, dominant victories at an elite level, and his overall decline in the last years.

    The others who can't all seem to be from the same place. Very curious indeed.

    Froch is not a p4p fighter.

    This I agree with Danny Garcia is class when I've watched him.Danny Garcia is better than many think.

    Bull mate ( bound to happen eventually considering how the tide had turned)the only thing I can agree on is(stoppage was early & wrong).

    Based on your bull**** style analysis? His resume is outstanding and that's everything that counts.

    He deserves it because his resume is EXCELLENT. Name 10 guys with better resumes or shut up.

    I bet you're one of the twats that thought Broner deserved to be in there.

    You're a p4p wanker. :finger5

    Froch's Résumé speaks for itself and some DKSAB arseholes 'style analysis' doesn't change that.

    Both had decent wins. Also, competition was kinda sparse for some P4P spots.

    p4p?

    I don't think either where p4p. Guerrero was a top 5 WW but surely no one had him close to being p4p top 10.
