Should Carl Froch be admitted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame?
What do you think?
Has he done enough in his career to be worthy of the IBHOF?

Sure and based on some that have got in he's a shoe-in. He definitely gets on the ballet.

I don't know what the criteria is to be entered in the IBHOF , but if Froch gets in, it can't be particularly elite.
Re: Should Carl Froch be admitted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame?
look at the names over last 15 years - he's a dead cert
As much as I like Barry Mcguigan as a person I didn't think he did enough to get in

Well it is the Hall of "Fame".
Gatti is in there, so why not Froch?

Going along with what everyone has said, sure since it has turned into a joke anyways

Froch beat enough top guys in his era to make the HOF, just maybe not in his first year of eligibility.

Welcome to the club champ!

Only if we don't have to hear him give an acceptance speech
Re: Should Carl Froch be admitted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame?
Yea he has to be. Sometimes it comes down the contribution the man gives to the sport, and Froch has contributed alot. The guy is a warrior, was in some great fights, even beat guys I and many others expected to beat him. He also filled an 80,000 seater stadium and while many don't advocate box office in this country, at least the fights he had on box office against Kessler & groves were actually worth the money.

There are a couple hof clubs. One is held in Vegas. The one i respect is canastota HOF.
Yes he deserves first bid.
I think this year bowe was inducted. Set aside his trilogy with Holy,a case could be made he didn't deserve it either.

Weird. Froch will get inducted before Hopkins. 2020 he is eligible.

I think he deserves it.
He's more of a ring warrior than many others - for example, he fought for world titles in his opponents' home countries (Taylor, Kessler, etc). That's something prima donnas like Floyd Mayweather and Andre Ward would never do.
And Carl never demanded an opponent wear gloves with extra padding, like Floyd did.
