Froch: Facing Bernard Hopkins in Notttingham is Huge! - Boxing News

He wants to fight a 50-year-old who is coming off getting a hiding, the same bloke he rubbished Calzaghe for fighting a hundred years ago.
Shit matchup. Good press conferences/build up. Shit fight. Be hilarious if Hopkins fiddled his way to a decision.
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.

He's been having time out since last May! and if it's an old injury , why is it only now that it's a problem? I know you're a big fan of his and will defend him , and I'm not looking to wind you up for the sake of it, but I just think a few people are being economical with the truth here. It's not the crime of the century and everyone does it, but let's call a spade a spade here.

Froch has no doubt earned his shot to fight whoever he wants after years of fighting the best back to back. His spot in history secure and he deserves all the respect he gets
At the same time he is no longer the fearless, take on all comers warrior once was, he is looking to cash out & who can blame him but the fighter is gone. What remains is a guy who wants high reward low risk and joins most other top fighters at the moment who have that ethic
Thanks for the memories carl

Right, let's dispel this "regularly fighting the best in the division for the last 6 or 7 years " myth forever. His record over recent years is as follows working backwards:
George Groves (twice)
Now I like Groves and I think he can become a champion, but it doesn't matter what I think , he hasn't PROVEN anything yet. He has never beaten a top 10 fighter in this division.
Kessler
Another fighter I like , but he was Washed up, past his sell by and that is proved because he has never fought since and is now retired.
Mack
Who? Wtf has he done before or since?
Bute
Because he wasn't in the super six, we didn't know if he was the real deal or not. That night in Nottingham proved that he wasn't! He was like a rabbit in headlights and done fuck all since.
Then there was the super 6! Yes, he took on the top guys, but that was the whole point of the tournament. THEY ALL DID! And yes, he got to the final......but only because Kessler got injured.
Ward
Completely schooled.
Johnson
40 years old, say no more. Too close for comfort and a "novice" Groves won every round against Johnson 12 months after.
Abraham
Blown up MW that has never carried that power up to SMW.
Kessler
Well beaten.
Dirrell
Many thought Dirrell was hard done by in Froch's backyard
Taylor
Another Blown up MW , who let's not forget was 14 seconds away from beating him . However, credit where credit's due, he won and that's that! (Still a blown up MW though.)
Pascal
I'm gonna try not to rubbish this one because Pascal was 21-0 at the time, and he has since gone on to have a very decent career at a heavier weight. However, he hadn't beaten anyone of note up to then and was fighting in Froch's backyard.
Froch is ok, but like with Khan and now even Fury, Brits do overhype them a bit.
Finally, what's all this "he's earned the right to fight who he wants, when he wants, where he wants?" Actually, he hasn't . The Americans aren't interested in him topping the bill at Vegas, that's why he needs Chavez, because for some reason unknown to me, Chavez is PPV fighter worthy of topping the bill at Vegas! That fight couldn't be made , hence no Vegas!
Funny really, if he wants to cement his "Legacy" and fight in Vegas, there is another fighter that fits the bill, and he's available........... His name is Andre Ward. Nah, thought not!

hmmmmm, you know, if someone was to ask me if eggy Primo was a fan of Froch id probably guess he wasnt
and if someone then asked me whether i thought his opinion on Carl Frochs carear was completely impartial and fair and had no bias, id probably say no it wasnt, it isnt and it hasnt
Officially the only saddo who has had a girlfriend
