Froch isn't as willing to fight Taylor as he led us to believe...

froch is the champ fk taylor

He's a paper champion. He won a vacant title by beating a fringe contender. He never beat a champion for the title.

so he is the champ aint he!

After watching him go life and death with a Canadian who is possibly a little bit short of world level ability it wouldn't surprise me at all to see Froch stay at home and fight an easy mandatory to make a bit of money. Henessy has a contract with ITV, it'd be no problem at all for him to get the fight on the telly and he's had months to make a TV deal for the fight on British TV anyway, so he's clearly bullshitting.

I'm sure i read ITV wont show anymore fights in the early hours.. which obviously Froch-Taylor would be from the states.

But.. I'd be surprised if Froch didn't have one or two "gimme" defences before stepping up.

Respect to him if he makes his first defence in the challengers backyard

How many more gimmes does he need? It's all he's had his whole career

Maybe of your heart. But in Boxing no he's not. Can't be a champ if you never beat one.

Whether its Froch's fault or the WBC's fault it dont change the fact that Froch has a belt without fighting anyone remotely good.
Shit even laughing stock of the 168 division Mundine has fought Kessler, Ottke, Soliman, Green, Echols, and Siaca.
Then u go and criticise Taylos record who love him or hate him has fought, champions, future hall of famers and dangerous punchers. He has fought atleast 7 or 8 fighters better than Frochs top opponent in Pascal.

Hopkins x 2
Wright
Pavlik x 2
Ouma
Spinks
Joppy

That is a solid resume win lose or draw, and has proven Taylor is world class.
Froch may go on to be a great champ, and i'll freely admit im wrong, but as of now he has done nothing but win a belt against a limited opponent and he didnt do that overly easy either.
There is a difference between being a beltholder, and being a champ.

[littlerock]

For months Froch has been accusing Taylor of ducking him, when the reality is that Taylor still had a contract with HBO when he was first offered a shot at Froch for the WBC belt, and HBO had no interest in Froch.

So the fight wasn't made for tv reasons on Taylor's side.

Now it seems that Hennessy is using the tv excuse himself as a reason they haven't accepted DiBella's offer.

Anyone else see the irony here?

I wonder if Froch will start accusing himself of ducking.

yeah i hold my hands up i am basing froch winning against taylor more on gut instinct than facts, fact is taylor has met much better oposition. just never thought he was that good a champion. just shows that these titles mean fk all, ditch them all & lets get everyone fighting everyone no more mandatory or anything like that, we the fans would know who is the best then, what an ideal world that would be, oh wait MONEY MONEY MONEY thats what matters i suppose though

well said, he needs to stop moaning and fight a true champion, super mid or light heavy it makes no difference aslong as he can prove his words, he will become a true champ in time but he really needs to take fights that are on the table instead of chasing something that will not happen.

It may be the case with ITV but Hennessy knew the dates for the purse bids before Froch fought Pascal and would have been negotiating with British TV companies then to see how much they were willing to pay so that he could make his bid. Using British TV problems now as an excuse is no excuse, it does look like they're avoiding the fight.

I agree that Froch deserves respect for making his first defence (or even second or third) in the States but I'll believe it when I see it. I'm guessing the Trent FM arena for the forseeable future.

Your kidding right? Taylor has the better resume hands down

Froch is NOT THE CHAMP.. He is a paper alphabet title holder... You really think Taylor gives 2 shits about a fing belt?

Taylor has been in the ring with

Hopkins 2X
Wright
Pavlik 2X
Lacy

Froch needs to fight someone other than guys from the soup kitchen for chrise sakes
