Bilbo is right, underrated by product of being overrated or popular. At the end of the day he's DEFINITELY one of the best 6 fighters in the division and honestly I did not believe that I have picked against him his last 4 fights.

"There's nothing special about him." -Sergiy Dzinziruk
I was missing a period there. I can believe I've picked against him, I just didn't believe he was a top fighter not at all.
No-one that is apparently friends with Larry Olubamiwo could have posted that.
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
oOoOo Meeeeow!
Here's the difference Fenster. Listen to Larry's post-fight interview at 7:30
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDtZX...eature=related
All of his interviews are like this. Humble, down to earth and recognises his limitations.
He has also gone to the Wildcard and has trained with Freddie Roach to improve his game.
See the difference? One is a twat with yes men around him who aren't brave enough to tell him he's shit and needs to tighten up his game - One is a man who doesn't need telling and recognises his limitations himself and does something about them.
Guess which one Froch is? Delusion is something I really can not stand. Makes me think "Do you not have any real friends who can be honest with you?"
Froch reminds me of those twats who turn up for X Factor or American Idol and are awful but when Simon says "Listen, you're really bad". They turn around and say, "What do you mean? No I'm not!!! Everyone says I'm the next Whitney Houston!!!"
That's FrochExcept he won a world title...strange
He's not even overated by anyone though. I mean apart from HattontheHomo who else in the entire boxing world overates Carl Froch?
And overhyped? Apart from the hardcore boxing fans on this forum nobody in the UK or US has even heard of him.
It's ridiculous, yes he talks himself up a lot but self promotion doesn't equal other people believing he's special.
He has limitations, just as many boxers do.
The thing is, when a fighter has good fundamentals, or a great defense, or superb athleticism, all of his negative attributes tend to get completely overlooked, whereas if a fighter has a weak chin, or is slow, or throws wide looping shots for example they get ripped apart by 'experts' like Taeth who show us why they are so poor and then ask us to explain how we know so little as to have concluded they were good. These kind of threads annoy me. They just highlight an obvious point that everybody is aware of and then talk as if it's only the sage boxing wisdom of the thread starter that has deduced this and that we, the illiterare need to be informed.
