He will knock out Jean and when he does that he needs to keep fighting higher profile fighters. He wants to do this, there is no question in that at all.

    Hes ranked WBC number 1. He wants the best, but do the best want him? I dont know, but at the end of the day somebody is going to fight Froch with a name in the next 4-5 months and we can really see how good my boy is ! He needs that little boost to put him up there and Jean Pascal is going to give him that. He may be 31, but hes better at 31 than he was at 27. So what if he has left it later on in his career, hes looking very strong for his weight and will be taking out any fighter IMO at 168.

    Bring on everybody !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Bute and Kessler are European.
    But they are on the world level. Bute or Kessler-Froch would be an outstanding match up!

    I think both fights go down like Hamed and Barerra.

    I dont hate Froak! do i think he is a prick... yes i do.

    Froak will load up as he does every fight (he cant box watch Magee) he uses that low left hand as a range finder for his right hand left hook combo. Bute and Kessler are superbly schooled and would dart in and out landing on Froak as his defence even against bums is open.

    He could get lucky and land a bomb but Froak is a one trick pony Bute and Kessler are not.

    I dont easily sell on guys who have done nothing yet scream king dickdom ive been burned too many times.

    He learnt a lot from the Magee fight, I agree he was trying to just look for that punch. But at the end of the day he knew it was coming. I think against Pascal hes going to have to box more than he usually does but he will find the openings. If he hurts Pascal he wont be able to just stand there and box all night. He will have to trade and he will crumble. Some rounds Froch will loose ie against Dodson but hes setting them up because he knows that its coming. Hes getting to be very effective at 168. I cant wait!

    Ross,

    Didn't Froch beat the crap out of your boyfriend Robin Reid?

    I recall you saying that Reid would wind back the clock and beat Froch...

    Now that, my dear...is gay

    The reason Froch gets away with his style is he hasnt fought a dangerous world class fighter yet . The jury is out on Froch , he needs big fights now.

    I know you're just making a point here but Reid was never going to pose a serious threat to Froch in that fight (maybe a punchers chance early at most); Reid was well passed it at that stage but I'll always feel sorry for Reid after that decision against Otke for the IBF belt

    Ah right, thats it, youve put me right off him again

    The reason he hasnt hit the deck yet is because he hardly fights and when he does its retreads, oaps and midgets



    As for Carl getting the hell lout of trouble, are you trying to say any of his opponents so far have been capable of pputting anyone in trouble?

    He hasnt been tested so far, he hasnt had to get out of trouble, hes getting caught by the lesser opponents which is why I find it ridiculous anyone takes his claims of greatness serious

    at the end of the day they werent as bad as you say they arent. They are capable of putting up a fight, but its alright you saying that they didnt fight back, the simple fact is they dont and they didnt have a plan B. Carl is a very dangerous fighter and hes going to give problems to everybody at 168

    I think the issue with Froch is that he is obviously above domestic and european level but at world level there is an unknown quantity there. I'm not sure whether it was his fault for not being active enough or being avoided by the other champs.

    Nevertheless, I certainly see him getting the WBC title and defending a few times but think if he meets Kessler he will get beat.
