I like it, give Froch hell! How can I help?

Froch is the 2nd best smw in the world whether we like it or not.

He wins and he has taken fights that others wouldnt have..

Froch is an ATG---he finds a way to win like Foreman did against Moorer or Marciano did against Walcott, he finds a way he is a classic puncher---awkward, off balance, wide shots, but he makes it happen. That is what an ATG is and does.

He did not win against Kessler or Ward.

As the "great" Calzaghe said after the bhop fight "a win is a win"

"Pretty sure he beat Kessler and had ward bricking it round 9 onwards"

Uh, Kessler was an older fighter than the one that lost to Calzaghe and beat Froch, and Ward was not "bricking it" , he SCHOOLED Froch.

Wasn't froch older too?

Yep, he was, you're quite right. So on that basis , Kessler's win over Froch should have more merit because they were BOTH younger and BOTH closer to their prime. Taking that further, surely Kessler is more deserving of being called a HOF or an ATG? Or doesn't it work like that ? I'd love to know.

Yeah I suppose beating free for the silver catch weight belt wouldn't get him in there.
I mean froch has set the standard now for what a great fighter is, it's not about being undefeated or how many fights you had because if Calzaghe or anyone had back to back 13 in a row against top 10 fighters they'd all be finished and retired now

Don't understand what you're trying to say, but it's not as if Froch won all them fights, so what's your point?

That was Dirrell's fault. He only wanted to fight for 3 rounds and run the rest, not box, but run. Froch tried to make a game of it but he was too slow to hit Dirrell.

I agree Dirrell did not deserve it but Froch has fought better fighters than Joe during their respective careers but Joe would always beat him.
