    Default Froch is THE worst boxer I have EVER seen

    Exaggerating? Maybe...I have watched guys like Mayorga, Carlos Maussa..honestly, I think he's slightly better than Maussa.

    This guy was so woeful against Kessler, I ask myself every time I watch him how he ever won a world title?? (I have some idea's why which I'm gonna mention)

    Kessler was nowhere near his best and still thoroughly beat Froch..I can't see how anybody could have even thought about giving the fight to Froch? He had a few good rounds towards the end of the fight but I didn't think the judge was too far off calling it a 117-111.

    If Froch would have got the nod in Nottingham, I would have called that a blatant robbery.

    I've seen people throw shots with better technique in the their first day at a boxing gym. How many times did this idiot throw a shot which missed completely and squared him up leaving him way out of position?

    In fact he nearly got knocked out when this happened once I think it was the 5th or 8th (I mix up when Kessler slipped down)

    How about the time when he missed and did a complete 360? Awful!!

    He has piss poor hand speed, piss poor defence, piss poor technique and piss poor reflexes

    How has someone so bad been undefeated for so long and even won a world title?

    Well he's lucky for being blessed with certain attributes..

    The main ones are his stupidly long arms which sometimes allows him to get away with having zero defence and also gives him that "ball and chain" power like Hearns had.

    Secondly, he has good stamina. He should be saying "Thank Fuck" every single day for his stamina or he'd have been exposed a long time ago.

    Thirdly, a fair chin. I say fair because he can be knocked out. Just you watch. Kessler wobbled and punished him for his recklessness. Direll also wobbled him with a shot he didn't see because of his lack of defence. Taylor dropped him too.

    By and large though, he takes big shots well. When he doesn't see them though, which is often due to being so wild, he is vulnerable.

    Anyway, rant over but the reason this guy get's to me so much is that his ego is out of control. Pure delusion. I've never seen anything like it...Hatton, Audley and Calzaghe have nothing on this guy!

    No doubt some of you will stick up for old Frochy, but please, tell me honestly what it is about this guy that is going over my head apart from the fact his recklessness leads to tons of leather being smashed upon his stupid his face? (Which is fairly entertaining, yes)

    I don't like Carl Froch inside or outside the ring really, but i have to give him credit. For being a so called crap boxer he's done pretty well. That just goes to show how much dedication he has and how strong his will is.

    Beating some very good fighters like Jermain Taylor, Jean Pascal, i don't count the Andre Dirrell fight as a win. But still Andre Dirrell was so negative even though i thought he won, he hardly looked like a winner falling to the ground about 10 times.

    Also Carl Froch done alot better against Mikkel Kessler, than i thought he could. I had it 115-113 for Mikkel Kessler, both men fought there hearts out, and it was a great fight.

    I don't think Carl Froch has anything to be ashamed of, and i actually don't think he looks that bad, when he puts his hands up and uses his underrated jab.

    But i don't get why he doesn't do that more often, he is nowhere near the worst boxer of all time. If he was that bad he wouldn't of beaten elite fighters, and won a world title.

    Whether you love him or hate, he always lets it all hang out. He's entertaining and he isn't scared of anyone.

    I've said it in previous posts. I really have no idea what people see in the guy but outside of his last fight he's beaten the guys they've put in front of him so i do give him credit for that. Another prop i'll give him is that every fight i've seen him in lately has been pretty exciting. I don't see how in hell he's going to compete with abraham and if he ever had to face ward well..........

    Why would you want to 'rant' about someone who makes fights exciting?
    Na seriously, you should just learn to like him for what he is. Clumsy but cocky. You gotta love that!

    His fight with Abraham will be an absolute classic

    He's definately not a great boxer but he makes up for this with stamina,heart,strength and sheer grit and determination. He must have something about him cause he's beat some good fighters. I appreciate him for what he is. Not everyone can fight like mayweather,pacman. I think he can beat Abraham, ward takes him too school tho.

    Ah, he's not THAT bad... But pretty close. I have NO idea why people rate him so highly. Honestly though, what does that say about Kessler, that he was in such a close fight with him. I only had it two(maybe three) points Kessler's way.

    Kessler's hands were at his chest and he was getting hit WITH A FUCKING UP-JAB from Froch's waist.

    I've always thought Froch lacked in most areas but found ways to win which you have to admire. I don't rate his win over Taylor that highly due to him getting beat post to pillar before Taylor ran out of gas... But that's part of boxing and he got the KO win. I give him credit for clawing a win out of a loss.

    His foot placement and balance are horrid... The way he leaves himself after punches... He fights that way against Abraham and he's gonna get knocked the fuck out. TBH, the more I think about it, the more I see Abraham stopping him.

    Froch does tend to make fights exciting being he's so goddamn flawed.

    Agreed.

    Whenever these "FIGHTER X is only good because of NATURAL TRAIT X" discussions come up, and who deserves what, I always think about Clint Eastwood in Unforgiven: "Deserves got nothin' to do with it." Its all about winning. If you can win a fight (or a championship) swinging wildly like Mayorga or with piss poor boxing skills like Froch, than more power to you. I'm not and never will be a Froch fan, but you gotta take your hat off to him.

    Would Julio Cesar Chavez have become a legend if it wasn't for his chin? Or Muhammad Ali if it wasn't for his speed and reflexes? Ect ect.

    That being said, I can't wait to see an angry, motivated King Arthur beat the hell out of him.

    He has just done what came natural to him in the ring and it's worked out pretty well for him. Styles make fights and his style has certainly made some for good scraps at top level Kessler, Dirrell, Pascal, Taylor were all good to great to watch.

    Calzaghe wasn't all that technically brilliant himself.

    But it works for him.

    And to a lesser degree it works for Froch as well.

    Both of them have a lot of grit.

    I agree with the slant you are taking,. Funny one of mine sparred with Him for the last Fight, I wasnt there. He reported back, He is better than He looks .

    I agree totally on your analogy of Carl Froch , he isnt so good.
    However i feel it is necessary to throw a name into the hat as worst boxer ever.

    Right then so when will you be challenging him? seriousely a lot of people on these forums talk about boxers that are actually doing things like they could hold a candle to them in the ring when blatantly if they could they wouldnt be on a forum winding themselves up through jelousy and blurting out a load of bollocks like they can actually box themselves, if its so easy get yourself forward. Honestly though i apologise because its so much harder to sit behind a computer and pull apart someones so called ''piss poor'' performance than it is to go out there and achieve somthing yourself isnt it, who are you again?

    in all fairness mate,most of us no this, no where not world class boxers, but this is a boxing forum, thats what where supposed to talk about. i understand where ur coming from tho.me personally i try not too hate on any fighter, because ive boxed as an amateur and i no how hard the sport is. i do hate it tho when i hear another person call another fighter a bum,or a piece of shit.
