Carl Froch - "I'm the future"
Carl Froch: I'm the future...
CARL FROCH insists he is the future of the super-middleweight division.
The unbeaten British and Commonwealth champ has to ditch his domestic titles on December 6 when he fights Canadian Jean Pascal for the WBC crown in Nottingham.
A month earlier Joe Calzaghe takes on Roy Jones Jnr in what is the undisputed super-middleweight king’s final fight.
Froch chased a showdown with Calzaghe but the fight was never made.
He said: “It’s frustrating he refused to fight me. But he’s history in November.
“I’m the future, I’ll be rewarded in front of my home fans when I win the title.”
Re: Carl Froch - "I'm the future"
Well, he's a douche-bag, but he's definitely a promising fighter. I'm interested in seeing how he performs against Pascal (who I am not at all impressed by).
I happen to think Bute/Kessler are more likely to be the future of SMW however.
Re: Carl Froch - "I'm the future"
Someone Carls age isnt going to be the future of any weight division, if he wins the WBC, he'll end up ina long line of fighters that lost it as quick as they wan it;D
Re: Carl Froch - "I'm the future"
The future at 31 ? thats one of the oldest supposed future's i've ever seen.
Re: Carl Froch - "I'm the future"
Even if Carl beats Pascal he'll struggle to get the big fights that would really test his ability.
I feel he will retire with us never knowing how good he was
Re: Carl Froch - "I'm the future"
Carl knows how much the fight with Pascal means to him. He will beat him and will have many promising fights with great 168 contenders. I cant wait ;D

I like your faith in the Cobra and good luck to him, I just don't see him getting the big fights
Re: Carl Froch - "I'm the future"
Everyone else agree that Pavlik would knock Froch out right now?
Re: Carl Froch - "I'm the future"
Do they? I certainly dont. I'd back Froch to beat Pavlik.

Me neither!
Froch hits way harder than Pavlik for a start and with pavliks sperious beard i think the cobra would put him out cold with that brutal cross come uppecut:)
Froch throws punches that you don't see and Pavlik is so static he simply be a sitting duck.
Froch will get a title imo,something i said long ago.
Least this thread should take some of the shit off JC for a while eh chaps;D
Unbelievable;D;D

I think a good boxer would beat Froch maybe stop him. Pavlik is a banger ans Froch is all wrong for him. If it turned into a slug fest Pavlik would get smashed, Froch hits way harder.
Box Froch everything off the jab backing up and you`ll retire him.

On the other side of the coin..Froch is all wrong for evryone he's fought,almost Naz like with his mad angles (admits it himself that Naz was a huge inspiration),I just see Frochy thumping him silly to be honest as i'm way from convinced of Pavliks chin and Taylor who is by no means a banger had him all over the shop in a matter of minutes.
trust me Froch is the most heavy handed SM out their.
Would be some fight and your right if Pavlik could avoid the tear up and use his jab (and it is a good one) he could maybe ware him down but he's too static and rarely moves his head;)
Re: Carl Froch - "I'm the future"
At 31 Froch is far to young for Pavlik.
Kelly likes the geriatrics.

When Brian Magee boxed him behind a good stiff jab he had him in all sorts of trouble. Infact ithink it was even going into the 11th and Magee is no master boxer.
Re: Carl Froch - "I'm the future"
Someone else touched on this but i was working ringside and magee never had him in trouble once..Froch was even chatting to Jim Watt while in a clinch and was clearly heard saying (and i quote) "Jim,Jim watch this" he then nodded to Watt then knocked magee down lol;D
Brilliant stuff...he hurt his hand badly during that fight and still put Magee into a semi coma and the O2 mask for a good minute;)
Magee was game all night but Froch could have ended that sooner bar the injury.
