    Well at least Froch has stepped it up and won a fight convincingly. I'm not a fan of Froch by any means, but to compare him to Khan makes me laugh a little. Both Froch and Khan would do a lot better by closing their pig ignorant traps somewhat.

    *snort* dunno why fighters seem to think they have to tell us how good they are all the time, shut up and show us. Who are they trying to preach to?

    In Khan's case he is most likely preaching to the Amir Khan forum. Which I have to say is the worst forum I have encountered in my time upon planet earth. In defence of Froch, he probably has a decent shot at beating Taylor, which will take him somewhere at least.

    Talk is louder than actions, so we shall see.

    Yes, Miles, comparing Froch with Khan is silly, Froch is 10 years older with the same amount of fights.

    Big nose has a decent dig, solid chin and by fighting Taylor, the challenger, in his own backyard has shown some serious bollocks.

    Or serious stupidness.. depending on how you look at it.

    Disagree with you, I don't think Froch's record is much better than Khan's. A load of shot, old fighters or guys who really weren't on the level. I did not think Froch was particularly 'convincing' against Pascal, for me it was a close victory with a lot mistakes against a guy who's not even top 10 in the division. I think Froch gets a much easier ride than Khan who doesn't come out with half the same crap. Khan gets asked questions, then the stupid Brit media blow things out of proportion, probably at the behest of Frank Wanker. Froch doesn't ever get misquoted, he says these things in live boxing shows, he seems to actually be Mick Hennessy's soulmate.

    Im not sold on Khan nor Froch really, but I do think Froch has stepped it up better than Khan. Froch is at the world level, Khan really isn't, for he has proven NOTHING. Khan isnt even the best at domestic level for crying out loud.

    If you want to believe he is then fair enough. I won't argue with you. but until he fights his way through, I will most likely doubt him.
