Why is he fighting a 36 year old Robin Reid who has lost ...........
1997 - Malinga
99 - JOKE Calzaghe
2000 - Branco
2003 - Ottke
2005 - hammerd by Lacy ?
i mean why bother ? is he over rated ? or can he really walk the walk , it seems a real waste of talent to take these kind of fights .
This by the way is a genuine question my fellow northener , im just curious
I think he is massively overrated. Never fought a top 20 guy. Bit of money in a Reid matchup tho. Thats why he is doing it. He'll probably KO shot Reid, then mouth off saying how he beat Robin easier than Joe C and is therefore better....
Put Carl in with Joe C or Kess, even a fit Mundine and he'd get his a** handed too him. He is a Danny Green level fighter at best.
I think stopping that Russian in his last fight showed hes world class!
Why is that? That Russian himself wasn't even world class. And Reid is no longer world class. Carl Fraud is hiding something that he doesn't want expose. Which is why he stays away from live threats.

The last fights hes knocked them out early. As ive said in the other posts, he gets his shot at the WBC title around spring, so we will see Carl Froch in action then. Just have to wait for it. i hope he does get in with the better fighter after Reid, but lets just hope he can put on a good perfomance and stop him early.
Re: Question for tam seddon - ref: Frotch
No chance of Reid getting stopped let alone early
Robin still believes in himself, he didnt have to take this fight, he took the Brinkley fight on 2 weeks notice and looked ok for the time off and short prep, how he felt in there has obviously given him a shot of confidence which is why hes taken this fight, he went quiet when offered before.
Frochs been out 8 months and has completed very few rounds in his last 2 fights, Reid has done 8 good rounds this year and has been training for this fight for a couple of months already, Froch has had surgery on his knee and maynot still be training hard on it.
frochs timing will be well off and with Robins new array of old man tricks he will rough house froch for the first few rounds and I hope ram his jab down carls throat, Reid has the longer reach, Reid also loves the overhand right and carl loves to catch em with his face.
I like Reid and would have liked to see him take another warm up before Froch, shame cattley pulled out of their eliminator, he obviously realises that Robin has something left in the tank.
At very least Froch will have a hard nights work, I can see Robin winning a decision like the Magee match in Ireland ;D
Re: Question for tam seddon - ref: Frotch
Froch is too good for Reid hes old and washed up and hes going to get knocked down. He looked slow and old in his last fight and trust me he wouldnt be able to take those right uppercuts from Froch.
He got bummed by Lacy, and i feel froch hits a lot harder than lacy.
Froch ko first 5 rounds.

Froch doesnt even deserve to be ranked top 10. Look at his opponents.
Tatevosyan 26-7 had been beaten by a guy (pirog) who had 3 pro fights 4 fights before Carl fought him. World ranking 37
Tony Dodson World ranking 63
Brian Magee World ranking 21
Dale Westerman World Ranking 86
AND NOW ROBIN REID WORLD RANKING 35
How can a guy who has never fought a top 20 fighter in his division get a title shot????
Re: Question for tam seddon - ref: Frotch
I like the guy, hes got a bit of cockiness to him. He is only at 21 fights and recently has increased his risk factor. Magee and Dodson are fairly decent, Reid is a slight step up. Theres alot of guys to fight in his division. There will be plenty to pick from after this fight.

Still doesnt answer how a guy who has never beaten a top 20 fighter can be a number 1 contender....?

Well, they probably did the old eenie-meenie-minie-mo; or flipped a coin.

Who is his management? Thats whats wrong with rankings systems, its all about sactioning fee's and who is dishing out the cash.

Your dead right. Cant Carl atleast fight a decent guy, who is still fighting reasonably well. Someone like Sam Soliman, Allan Green or Andrade, anybody who could show us whether he is good or not.
I really can see it now, he'll probably beat or even ko reid then he'll claim he is better than Calzaghe cos Joe only just beat Reid.
Re: Question for tam seddon - ref: Froch
He'd make a good comeback fight for Lacy.

Thats not a bad option, altho we'll probably see him against a few more 20-40 ranked fighters who have no power so that he can get a title shot before ever being tested. And when he does get a title fight and if it is against a top guy he'll get KTFO.
