    I don't think Froch's upbringing was that hard going on what he was saying, but having said that I am sure he had his share of rough moments like a lot of British kids do. I don't really see the big issue with what he was saying. Bikes do get stolen and kids do get into fights. You should fight for your bike, though I always made sure I had a lock. It makes life that bit easier. I admit that I did cringe a little when he was talking about blacks and mixed race people, but he was answering the question and that might well be his perception. I've never been to Nottingham, but I'm sure there are some ethnic minorities causing social problems. But you also know there are a lot more white people doing exactly the same things. So, yeah, that bit was a bit shakey, but on the whole I don't see the big deal. Froch always comes across to me as quite funny, but in a wholly unintentional way. He has the touch of Alan Partridge about him. He will say things and it will just crack me up.

    Most boxers have tough up bringing this is mild in comparison to most of them.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I don't really think it is a big deal to anyone Miles, it's just some good material to have a laugh and make a few jokes.

    I'd like to apologize on behalf of all ethnic minorities for inhibiting Mr Froch's upbringing. That has to be the most cringe-worthy comment from any boxer in recent memory. I actually appreciate that Froch is making every effort to make me dislike him that much more, I don't think anyone thinks that comment makes him a racist, but it certainly makes him a moron

    As for the idea that Nottingham isn't a rough city

    Is that why it's known as 'Shottingham'?

    Well of course you would be offended, you're a black minority type person in a non public school, bicycle stealing type way. It was your kind who took his bike, and then came over here and tried to make off with his belt.

    I'm sure you'd take his missus if you had half a chance too.

    Absolutely as long as she made sure her mouth was 'full' so I didn't have to hear her harpy voice

    Although, I've heard that some 'ethnic' types on the Tottenham team may have had their way with his missus already.

    Ever since Cheryl Cole the sound of a Geordie lass is the sweetest melody in the world imo.

    Is that true about the Spurs team? I must admit I'd laugh my ass off if John Terry or Tiger Woods had fucked her, they would get my respect.

    Best of all would be Ian Napa though or Duke McKenzie, can you imagine that, the Pride of Nottingham losing his girl to one of boxing's little 100lb runts, and a black man at that

    My friend is a club promoter and saw a picture of her & Froch in an article I was looking at (he had no idea who 'the ugly fucker with the bent nose' was). He said he'd met her at clubs and that it was known both Aaron Lennon & Jermain Defoe had had a go. May just be a nasty rumour

    Why do we call it a public school anyway? You would think a public school would symbolise your typical comprehensive in that any old riff raff can go there. It is public. What we call a public school is really more a private school really in that it is exclusive or else expensive. Just something that crossed my mind and I think it is strange.

    If that is true about the Spurs team then Froch should beat them all up. Why are football players such degenerates?
