I'd say Hearn did make him the "star" he became. Hennessey had him on BBC, ITV and Sky yet Froch went completely unknown to the British public. The Taylor fight wasn't even broadcast live in Britain and until signing with Matchroom Froch's supersix fights were all on Primetime in front of one man and his dog (Dirrell, Kessler, Abraham).

All these world-class fights going completely under the radar.

Froch spent the supersix - barring the Dirrell fight - fighting in the other guys backyard because he was the B-side in everything.

Eddie (Matchroom) made him the A-side. Remember they gambled on the Bute fight, stumping up the dough to get Bute out of Canada, that's basically where the Carl Froch "fame" came from. 7000 tickets... 20,000... 80,000... no TV to PPV... £100,000 for "world" title fight to £10 million.
Get you with your coming out of nowhere and your perfectly logical argument destroying my post. I am moving to Tibet. Cheque please
It's not on is it? That is not normal Saddo form.
