In America they hadn't heard of him and I've been watching the previews on Showtime, they wern't hyping Froch at all it was all about the Resurrection of Jermain Taylor.

It annoys me when people claim a fighter is really hyped when in fact what you mean is a couple of people on here might have been saying things about him.

Of course he hypes himself but any decent boxer who wants earn money at the sport does.

He wasn't much hyped at all imo before this fight, but trust me he will be from now on
Cry me a river
Did you quote the wrong post or something because I really don't see how Bilbo is 'crying'
Its all baby talk on here

I dont know anyone who has been hyping Froch as a World beater. Even his network ITV didn't want a piece of this fight.

And all this talk of Taylors Stamina... So This fight was fairly even going in and it played out how most of us thought it could, albeit in more dramatic fashion.

Great fight! Froch has a heart of a True champ. Needs to keep away from Kessler though

P.S Hope Dawson stays at 175
