How good is Carl Froch?

[ono]

Great wise words Tam from a kid who was 6 when Calzaghe won the title
put back in the dummy and gain some knowledge

why do you say that? being honest in 2 years time JC aint geting any better and i personally can only see Carl gettin better. JC will be 36 and way past it. If you read what i said....i said the longer he leaves it the more chance carl has of winning. I DIDNT SAY HE WOULD LOSE! i would just favour carl better. It will be a lot harder for JC to take on carl in 2 years, than he did now.

and why dont i have any knowledge?

Froch is an arrogant B******,so it will (hopefully) be a grudge fight against Calzaghe or Kessler,I would love to see Froch getting a real bloody beating.Froch only has a big mouth and Calzaghe or Kessler will close it

but being honest everytime he has opened his mouth he has delivered the goods am i wrong? i think he will stop Reid and this will be a shock through the 168 weight class....you'll see

It ain't to hard to deliver the goods with the type of opponents he's faced.

but his oppanents are improving with each fight he is in. you can see he is improving as welll it will all add up and you know that!

Improving? According to him he's there. He's the best out there. What the hell does he need to improve? And the level of opposition hasn't improved by much.

come on.....you can see over the last year he has improved. he is up there and i do rate him in the top 5 at 168. i do think the next fights will build up to bigger ones and i think Carl will do well at 168. Do you have no faith in him at all

None whats so ever. But I tell you what. I'll give him credit if continues to improve his competition level. There's plenty of fighters Froch can face that will earn him respect besides the current top 2. Lucian Bute, Denis Inkin, Juergen Braehmer. Jean Paul Mendy,. Robert Stieglitz. Who the fuck are they? There nobodies. Just like Froch. But like Froch. They think they are. They all got nice pretty records. They think there prospects. Let them fight and see who's right. I'll give Froch a hell of of a lot more respect if he fought one of these guys as oppose to facing a shot fighter like Robin Ried.

Yeh i agree with VD there. Fighing Robin Reid means fuck all after what Lacy did to him. Out of the British veterans there is Magee and Reid and he has already knocked Magee out so thats that. Forget domestic and move onto world level. And Vd is correct in saying, if Froch cannot get a fight against any of the top 5, he should fight a prospect from another country. If he proves he's the best prospect out there, nobody will be able to deny him his shot.

But his level of opposition needs to improve dramitically. Dale Westerman and Tony Dodson are hardly gate keepers to world class. That wouldn't be a problem for any other prospect in their 20th fight but Froch is 28 (i think) so he needs to get a move on.
