Carl Froch Is Not That Good.

[TheMacMagician]

I've said this in another post and don't mean to repeat myself but i think Froch could polish up nicely to something special but he needs a new trainer who can help with his defence. Maybe its too late for that now, old dogs new tricks and all that, but if he doesn't give it a try i say he'll end up gettin knocked out clean sooner rather than later now he has stepped up the level of opposition.

I think the last time i saw somethin so flamboyant in style as to not have any defence was Naseem Hamed and we all know what happened there. Love watchin Froch and think he has serious power but i think he struggles against Kessler who is the man at 168.

Kel- I would agree with you, but I think the technical errors that Froch makes ar ehuge ones- and fairly simple ones to correct, by holding his hands so low he's inviting himself to be punched all night- bigger hitters at 168 will take the oppertunity and finish him- full credit to the manner in which he won- can't knock him at all- but I just don't see him doing it against a Kessler or Bute.

It's so frustrating watching him making sloppy mistakes- confidence is a great thing but his so arrogant in leaving his left hand so low- and unwilling to listen to his trainer who kept telling him to pick it up- he nearly lost the fight.

His attitude and physical attributes are fantastic but he needs to improve technically to be atrully world class fighter. His constant talk of calzaghe winds me up no end. He should do his talking in the ring- not try to make a name from himself by slating a trully great champion

yeah it is frustrating especially whenyou seem after getting dropped that he still has his hands low. when i first saw froch i looked at his stance and thought he was a counter puncher and would roll his shoulder a lot

You'd have to go back 4 or 5 years to find Calzaghe's last stoppage - and that the second time against Mario Veit.

Froch can bang from the first to the last bell and Joe is hittable and his chin is not as good as people think.

Trust me, this time next year it will be *Froch who ?* the next guy he faces, if he is a top fighter, he will beat him

Froch certainly lacks boxing ability but he does have a decent workrate,a good chin and power.
