Although as said recently by Manny Steward on how his skills does not match his amazing mind set and may be an over achiever he has an incredible amount of my respect on just getting in there and giving his best. Fight after fight, win or lose his fought the best he has had on offer and will remain one of my fav fighters of all time!!! My heart says Froch, but my head says Bute! There are alot of haters on this forum and i cant imagine this guy warrants any bad press and his a credit to the youngsters out there starting of in the game, hence why his been working closely with the olympic team. In Britain we have had alot of great SMW's, but Froch is my favourite.:good
He fights the best and always comes to fight. Cant ask for more. Froch is indeed a credit to the sport.
Does anyone actually dislike Froch? Besides that MichiganWarrior guy, also known as the "floored" guy.
Froch will end up kinds like Glen Johnson. Froch is a good guy but against the very top he will come up short.
That's because he only fights the top guys. Anyone that fights top guys all the way is hard to look impressive all the way too. Many fans can't seem to see/understand that. When was the last time he fought a tomato can and scored a first round flashy KO?, better yet, when was the last time he had a "tune-up" type of fight as ALL(great or not) fighters do? And there's no way in hell he will end up like Johnson. Froch has skills and can box when needed.
Froch is generally a big bonus to the sport. The only thing that some people dislike is that he is a little cry-baby when he loses. Against Kessler he insisted for several months that he could just as well have won even though all judges and more than 90% of journalists had Kessler winning. Against Ward he understood he had lost, but only by a round or two and only because he had a bad day. Furthermore Ward is boring and dirty. Always some excuse. Many fighters make excuses when losing so perhaps too much to want him to not make excuses too. Otherwise - brilliant for boxing.
someone already mentioned johnson "i don't claim to be the best, i just fight the best" (thick jamaican accent) after rjj fight, 1 of my favourite quotes in boxing well froch probably still thinks he's the best lol but thats why he does what he does
