froch will froch his froching ass up in the 6th round, about the 1-minute mark, who's taking bets you fucking tightwads

Whatever you want to bet, name your price. Or did you purposely make the text small and hard to read hoping no one would call your bluff?

the only thing small and hard is your cock. MOOOOOOO-jajajaja MOOOOOOO-jooo-jooo-joooot

I would like to see Froch fight GGG if GGG wants to move out of the MW division.
But GGG gets crap for fighting guys from lower divisions , but Froch doesn't ?

Froch has fought top opposition. Once you have tried your hand against the very best you can do whatever you want.

A fight with the Kazak does not make any sense for Carl. There is nothing in it for him. Even if he beat him he would be remembered for beating up a middleweight and some would say that its proof the Kazak was a hypejob all along. He'd get no credit for it.

Carl has nothing to prove and I hope he fights Degale and regains the title they stripped from him, makes 10 mil and rides off into the sunset. It would be great for the guy if he beat Degale and the money would be ten times the amount he'd get against 3G.

Its his last fight most likely and he's earned the right to finish on his terms. I think he's firing back with this picture because of the urban legend that has started from him making some off the cuff comments on a broadcast about how he'd stay away from 3g

He was simply part of a broadcast team watching his fight and made that. Its part of the unplanned dialogue of the show. From that little blurb for months now all you see on the net is how Carl is scared shitless.

Crazy stuff.

Better than big and limp.

Froch is pathetic! He has no intention of either fighting again or fighting GGG. That's fair enough, if he don't wanna fight, he don't wanna fight.
The only problem is that He's just so desperate to stay in the public limelight, he posts pics of himself looking admittedly Ripped and mentioning GGG. why?
He told reporters GGG wanted Froch to come down in weight for a catch weight. Even Hearn had to admit that wasn't true!
There's only one thing Froch should do.........OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCE HIS RETIREMENT!!!!!

This is what enfuriates me about fans, they have no respect what so ever. Froch has earned admiration by repeatedly taking on the toughest challenges. I didn't like him myself when he first became a known commodity because of all his talking but then he fought top guy after top guy. Not payday after payday but actual good fighters. That should be respected. But here Froch is old and unsure if he even wants to fight and taking his time to decide and "boxing fans" have the nerve to question this champions courage, or say he is scared. That is pathetic, not pathetic by Froch but pathetic by "boxing fans".

Where did Hearn say the catchweight wasn't true?

With all due respect Primo never said Froch was scared and we here in the UK have been watching Froch long before he burst onto the world scene. He has always been a divisive figure here. From the moment he slagged off Calzaghe and demanded to jump the queue to face him. I myself have eulogized him to the point where prior to the Ward fight I suggested he had the opportunity to eclipse virtually all British super middleweights before him, and make a case for being one of the greatest British fighters ever.

Ward can make very good fighters look average so we shouldn't be too hard on him but he has just became unbearably smug since. He loves himself and the limelight so much (which is seen as very UnBritish) that he still can not bring himself to acknowledge the punch that Groves floored him with as being at all significant in his career. He might fight Golovkin but he has been inactive for a while now and that could end up costing him. He is not dumb enough to not realize this and so I would not be in the least bit surprised to see him retire rather than face him. Not because he fears him but because it is a risk he does not need to take. Maybe he would be up to the challenge and good luck to him if he is (he will need it) but at the moment it's just empty words. We will see.

Where did Hearn say the catchweight wasn't true?

When you read this, you're gonna say "He doesn't actually SAY it." but I think the logical conclusion is that nobody asked for a catchweight. it's up to you in my book. I also saw on a report on Boxing scene saying Hearn denied it, but I can't find it and I ain't trawling through old news anymore. sorry.

[Fenster]

Yeah he doesn't say it (). Reason I asked is - Hearn has been unusually quiet about this Golovkin fight. Everything is coming from Golovkin's manager Tom Loeffler.

(have to bin that link as it's from a pathetic troll site)

[Beanz]

The Froch /Calzaghe feud/war of words has gone on so long now that Froch (and this is back in May) is supposedly even willing to have a straightener out on the cobbles with Calzaghe

Carl has also fallen out with fat Dan (Raphael)

Froch slating Frankie Gavin in that interview just as he walks down the corridor. Classic. What a massive wanker (outside the ring of course)

[Gandalf]

Froch is acting a bit strangely. That stuff about Calzaghe was babyish. Bitching about a fighter then bitching about being bitched by a fighter! Just retire Froch. You are old and inactive, it happens. Just enjoy your life, your work is done.
