Carl Froch could face disciplinary action after saying he was prepared to kill Mikkel Kessler - Telegraph
Seems he must be either fucking tight or trying to boost ppv - still a bit of a stupid thing to say I think when the sport is boxing. & Im a huge froch fan
Carl has never been able to gain a public following like hatton etc and this wont help, even if he is as fearless as they come as well as a great fighter
It sounds like he has snapped. The things he was saying made very little sense.
Good headline when you need to sell PPV.
As I'm a bit of a cunt, well a big one, I've started to hope Kessler smashes him.
They probably went a shared a nice protein milkshake after the press conference.
Don't buy into it.
Taking things a little bit too far in my book. This is a sport.
Disappointed in carl.
He has been celebrated alot recently by the media and justifiably so. He is a warrior who fights the best and is always in great shape. He should be a role model but then we forget that he has a history of saying stupid things. This tops the lot but it is fight week so giving him the benefit of he doubt perhaps he got carried away in the moment
This has swung me in kesslers direction cuz i was undecided as to who to support. Both great fighters who put it all on the line in the ring but if you compare who they are as people, you gotta get behind mikkel. He is a true gentleman/ role model
Wow whatg a stupid ass thing to say! Froch is off his rocker, I know its fight week but hell weren't they always respectful and friendly with each other. definitely hope kess putts a whoopin on him now, somethin ain't quite right with frochs noggin.
Its like he's reverted back to the petulent little bratt he was while Calzaghe was active. Maybe its something along those lines, that the ghost of Calzaghe is still haunting him until he gets that win over Kessler because if you notice, its always the Kessler fight and only the Kessler fight he says he cant get off his mind and he dreams about, never the Ward fight. He's not ever even mentioned Ward as a possible opponent again and that I think is to do with the fact that Calzaghe isnt around so in Carls mind Calzaghe cant go one better than Carl over Ward as well.
I think Froch would have a nervous breakdown if Calzaghe did come out of retirement and beat Ward;D

Well that was fuckin dumb.
I've thought that too. He seems a little too wound up to me.Quote:

“Trust me, I will have those little gloves on and I will smash him right in the face. I will hit him hard and often. People talk about us being friends and, yes, he is alright. But he wants something I have got. I worked so hard to get that belt and there is no way he is getting it.”
what is he rambling on about :S.... froch is going semi senile :S..............
At one point in the Calzaghe fight it looked as if Kessler was going to be stopped by that body shot. He never looked in that kind of danger against Froch.Quote:

That's funny because he says the opposite but then again what would he know.:-\Quote:

Kessler never held on for dear life like that against Froch.
