    How is Carl Froch protected when he is willing to fight the top fighters ? he has called out Joe Calzaghe that fight never happened.......

    He was going to fight Dennis Inkin but Dennis Inkin pulled out.......

    He was going to fight Jermain Taylor but Jermain Taylor is fighting Jeff Lacy........

    I just think Carl Froch has been unlucky he isn't protected.

    ICB you are pissing many off by pretending you aren't him. Personally, I think it is a bullshit move and you should own up. I also think it is creepy. You are figured out. Why are you being a bitch.

    hands down, Andre Berto he had his hand held all the way to a "world title" and given it against a guy who shouldn't have even been fighting for the retarded WBC Continental "Championship"

    Oh hell yeah!!! It's amazing to me that he seems already finished as a fighter without even fighting anyone of substance.

    How can Froch be a protected fighter when no one will fight him? Taylors people (Lou Dibella) ADMITTED they'd sooner fight Lacy, not just for the money, because he's the EAISER option.

    Inkin has pulled out twice against him in the past year. Pretty sure Berrio accepted then changed his mind.

    I'm not much of a Froch fan, he seriously needs to land a fight, but protected fighter is - crap.

    Ok Inkin pulled out but the guy is ranked no1 by the WBC its crazy.

    He should have had a B level test by not he aint wheres the likes of Bika, Mundine, Berrio, Zuniga? all guys that travel and fight anyone. Froch maybe good but the moron tries to clown Calzaghe and Kessler but he aint done shit.
    So why did Berrio pull out of fighting him then?

    If those who you mentioned are B level fighters, so is the guy who Froch mullered isnide 2 rounds last year.
    Bika, Mundine and Berrio are all fighters ranked by The Ring. Tatevosyan is a 35-year old guy with 7 losses (2 out of last 3 before Froch), who got lucky in meeting Markussen on his career's worst night (Markussen lost that fight more than Tatevosyan won it) and besides that has lost to everyone else half-decent he has met.

    Please dont compare these fighters.

    No knock on Joe at all but he was overprotected for the majority of his career.
    He had the potential to beat alot of big names in the industry in comparison to whats currently on his resume.
    Its only now Joe has been getting the big fights but at 36-37 he is no longer in the prime of his career.

    I'm a huge fan of the Petersons but no doubt they've had it soft.

    Pavlik had it very soft till Miranda but that's besides the point now.

    Obviously JCC Jr.

    That Tyrone Brunson guy who's 19-0 with 19 straight first round KO's, one cashier after another.

    This is a good point but while he had the potential to beat a lot of big names i feel he would have lost to a prime Hopkins and certainly Jones and he wouldn't be as marketable without his 0 so thats why he was so protected
