The only British fighter I have ever wanted to lose EVER is Audley Harrison. If you had been around a bit longer you might know a bit more about the people you are judging.
Your problem is that you can't be objective about a British fighter.

ha, i cant be objective?
you have a clear dislike for him, virtually all your posts have been against him, half of which isnt really true
he was rocked by this guy and wobbled by that, hes slow, etc etc
you refer to one post where you think that I havent been objective about froch (or any other boxer for that matter)
dude, froch has lost once in twenty odd fights, he has a fantastic knockout record, every fight he has been in has been more than entertaining (appart from the dirrell fight through no fault of his own), he makes the build up to fights exciting with his persona, he is fantastic for boxing, he is english and i am damn proud to say that and so should you be
Uhh no i said i could possibly last 9 minutes, maybe i couldn't maybe i could. Who cares whats that got to do with anything ?
And why are you licking up HTH's ass ? are you the same person ? because you both act very alike.
Infact i know the MOD's may edit this comment which is fine, but i think your both a bunch of wind up merchants, if its not HTH on two accounts.
You both are totally clueless, and say any old rubbish. To get a rise out of people, honestly its like you two are from totally different planets.
Audley Harrison can beat the Klitschko brothers, Carl Froch whooped Dirrell/Kessler. And Carl Froch was ahead going into the last round vs Jermain Taylor ?
Are you kidding me ? do you actually believe this crap you spout out ?
Im not a hater of Carl Froch at all, i think he's exciting fighter and is willing to fight anybody. But just because he's British i don't totally erase his flaws from my mind, and claim any old bullshit like HTH does.
The fact is many people believe he lost to Andre Dirrell, Carl Froch didn't "whoop" or "whip" anyone.
A whooping is James Toney vs Iran Barkley/Joe Calzaghe vs Jeff Lacy.
Carl Froch vs Andre Dirrell was a messy/untidy fight, with not alot of action. But Andre Dirrell was able to make it his kind of fight, and Carl Froch struggled to land anything meaningful and was outboxed.
Against Mikkel Kessler he was outworked/outhustled, if the fight was in any doubt. Mikkel Kessler won the last round to seal the deal, he won the fight. With a good steady body/head attack.
Against Jermain Taylor he was behind going into the 12th round by atleast 3 rounds, anybody who had Carl Froch ahead. Is a clueless moron, it was a good win for Carl Froch. But to say he didn't need a KO in the last round is utter rubbish.
OK - Saying he "Whopped" Direll. NOBODY could objectively say either of those guys "Whopped" the other it was a dull nothing fight, there was no "Whopping"
So now you show me the posts where I talk about Froch gettled "Rocked by this guy and wobbled by this guy" Because that wasn't me that wrote that or any of the other posts. Mixing me up with Facster me thinks ;)
dude really, i think it is you who are clueless
admittedly I got carried away with the harrison klit thread mind
but heres one thing I feel very very strongly about and it has nothing to do with nationality, If dirrell had of been given the decision against froch it would have been an absolute tragedy and a very bad thing for boxing as a whole. I honestly believe the fight should have been stopped after a few rounds or dirrell at least get a very harsh warning. thousands of fans had paid a lot of money to be at the fight and to watch it on pay per view and they didnt pay that money to watch someone run a hold and generally spoil
Whether or not Andre Dirrell spoiled or was boring means jack shit, if he derserved to win he deserved to win end of. I mean what did Carl Froch do really himself ? yes he come forward but it has to be effective aggression. Carl Froch was just walking slowly forward throwing the odd punch and being rough on the inside.
But he wasn't landing effective punches, and he looked totally frustrated. Infact Andre Dirrell was the one that was able to rock Carl Froch in the 11th round. He was also able to keep the distance and outbox Carl Froch.
Yes it wasn't pretty, i never said it was. But just because Andre Dirrell was boring, doesn't mean he didn't deserve to win. I think most fans feel Andre Dirrell won by a few rounds.
And just for the record i don't like Andre Dirrell, and i'd rather Carl Froch win over Andre Dirrell any day of the week. But the way i scored it RBR, and the way most fans scored it. They had Andre Dirrell as the winner.
we are getting into the dirrell froch argument again now which i cant be bothered with
just be delighted as a boxing fan that froch won
boxing probably lost a number of half and half fans following that fight and if boxers were allowed to win world titles with those tactics it would loose many many more
Says the guy that just posted about "Ratting people out" on another thread.
There is a difference between disliking and being honest about.
e.g Nigel Benn is probably my favourite fighter of all time. Do I think he would've beaten Roy Jones, James Toney or Mike McCallum? No! Does that mean I dislike him? No!
ha, you can be quite funny when you want to be
cummon man, there is a difference but that isnt what is going on on here, peoples hate for boxers is clouding their judgement
i could probably list 10 occasions where this is happening with fensters posts, if i could be bothered reading through again
someone said in HTHs thread that neither froch nor kessler has any skill
man cummmoooonnnnnnnnnn
i would say i am the most "objective" (as you put it) and the least swayed by biast on this forum from what i have read so far
It makes no difference if you like Froch or hate him... you still have to admire the way he blocks all them shots with his chin.
go easy on erics H me old `china, he seems an alright bloke
saddo - when the f*ck are we gonna get this rep thing sorted out? absolutely ridiculous that someone as popular as me has such little punch power :mad::mad::mad:
