Why would you want to 'rant' about someone who makes fights exciting?
Na seriously, you should just learn to like him for what he is. Clumsy but cocky. You gotta love that!
His fight with Abraham will be an absolute classic![]()

He's definately not a great boxer but he makes up for this with stamina,heart,strength and sheer grit and determination. He must have something about him cause he's beat some good fighters. I appreciate him for what he is. Not everyone can fight like mayweather,pacman. I think he can beat Abraham, ward takes him too school tho.

Ah, he's not THAT bad... But pretty close. I have NO idea why people rate him so highly. Honestly though, what does that say about Kessler, that he was in such a close fight with him. I only had it two(maybe three) points Kessler's way.
Kessler's hands were at his chest and he was getting hit WITH A FUCKING UP-JAB from Froch's waist.
I've always thought Froch lacked in most areas but found ways to win which you have to admire. I don't rate his win over Taylor that highly due to him getting beat post to pillar before Taylor ran out of gas... But that's part of boxing and he got the KO win. I give him credit for clawing a win out of a loss.
His foot placement and balance are horrid... The way he leaves himself after punches... He fights that way against Abraham and he's gonna get knocked the fuck out. TBH, the more I think about it, the more I see Abraham stopping him.
Froch does tend to make fights exciting being he's so goddamn flawed.

I have to say in some parts I totally agree man, Froch has a couple the very very worst attributes I've seen in a boxer. Worst footwork, gets so square and is always always off babalance when he fights someone that has a sniff of movement to their game, and most annoying to watch is the worst uppercut technique in the world bar none, almost like a move out of Street Fighter that you can see coming from the cheap seats. Aside from that, like ICB says, his desire, will and supreme conditioning are second to none. I'm sure there are plenty of boxers out there that could learn heaps from training sessions with Carl no doubt, dudes like Arreola and Chambers could be fighting a weight division lower than customary no problem if they were to follow Froch's suit.

He's a flawed boxer, but leaves it in the ring with some notable wins as other people have mentioned. He has Heart, chin, stamina, and he has been in some exciting fights as well. I really don't mind him. Not to mentioned he doesn't duck anyone.
It's too bad with the natural attributes he has he couldn't be a more sound and technical boxer.

You know, in a weird way I can see it being part of his draw. I don't like Froch but like watching his fights due to his awkward, unpolished style making a more exciting bout. Froch's fights always seem pretty exciting, bar Dirrell... and that's not Froch's fault. He always shows up to fight... albeit in a really shitty manner![]()

Agreed, I've always said his level of competition already shits on Calzaghes - Nobody can knock that.
And agreed x2..He wouldn't be half as exciting to most fans if he was technically better than he is now!
I still hate his guts!If he was a mute I may have given him the sympathy vote for being so bad. I'm sure he'll get over me not liking him though, with his world title on one side of the bed and his hot chick on the other

Lmao wow just got done reading the entire thread - Some of you need to stick a fuckin tampon in it and stop taking me so personally.
In summary, the theme of my thread was - "Credit where it is due..But how the fuck does he do it"
In fact, it was quite complimentary I thought![]()
