if froch was offered enough money i am sure he would consider it
Maybe cleverly should come down to 168? Oh I forgot he can't do it even though a 42 year old glen Johnson can?? That's what's odd
Froch - Cleverly wouldn't last 5 rounds. It would be an absolute slaughter.Quote:

If it's not to do with England v Wales, why make the Calzaghe / Cleverly comparison?
As for Froch v Mack, it's nice for Froch to get a reasonably well-known name who should be fairly straightforward for him to enjoy as a hometown fighter.
Right we will start a collection, I'll put in a fiver to get things rolling.Quote:

If you Want to think its enGland vs Wales then call it karma!! If cleverly can make 168 then do so but froch doesn't need to go up for that belt which has little relevance unless you unify it with another belt to make the guy holding it worth something!! Does Dawson look interested in fighting clev? No!! Cos there are bigger and better things out there.Quote:

Kessler has had tons of fights like this , in his own back yard,
about time Froch had a easy night.

You don't see the simularities in level? Calzaghe's excuse for avoiding Froch was that he was not on his level... Froch is obviously levels above cleverly who was handed his belt and hasn't really fought anybody yet.
Froch is the best British world champion of the last decade in my humble opinion.
I respect your opinion but Calzaghe wouldnt have let Ward dictate the way he did, or lose, or lose to Kessler for that matter.Quote:

ward is not a bad thing ,nearly every fighter has a loss,its what you learn from
that,thats what matters,and Froch would beat Kessler now ,And if in tip top condition
and different tactics would push Ward a lot closer.
