Get in the cue.......... (Froch/AA spoiler)

[Fenster]

Strange one to get your head around Froch, still dont really like him, still dont think he's that good

Its a shame really because for what he's done over the past 2 and a bit years he should be better known, I doubt this excellent performance changes that.

For someone who's old, slow, doesnt punch as hard as he thinks and blocks with his face he's doing alright

Me and you have been picking against him since his British title days. I still can't see anything good about him either. But the cunt proved us wrong bigtime

Froch put together an exceptional display of controlled, disciplined boxing this last Saturday. I, for one, didn't think he had that type of focus in him. Literally, he fought the perfect fight. In particular, I was impressed that Carl fought right back anytime AA tried to rough him up. It's testament to how far smarts, grit and determination can take you in boxing. Hats off to Carl - clearly, he made Nottingham proud.

On another note, Froch needs to be considered in the top 20 p4p rankings at this point. In the last two years, he has beat the current light heavyweight champion, Jean Pascal, former middleweight world champion, Jermain Taylor, Andre Dirrell, and now beat former world middleweight champion, Arthur Abraham. Besides the Pascal fight, each of Froch's fights were held outside of Great Britain and Froch was the underdog going into the fights. His only loss was a close loss to Mikkel Kessler and I'd favor Froch in a rematch.

Froch's victories are more impressive to me than what Lucian Bute (Zuniga, Miranda, Andrade, Brinkley) and Andre Ward (Miranda, Pudwill, Kessler, Green, Bika) have done. There I said it.

you should feel proud mate, it was well said

I think people's opinions of froch are influenced because he isnt liked, i think if they could get past the dislike they would have a similar view

its funny that people (boxing fans) dont like him, yes he has a mouth but he has the type of personality that sets boxing appart from other sports and makes this sport so saleable

how many other sports do you get these personalities?

where would boxing be without the froches, RJJs or Eubanks?

It would be even better if anyone knew who FRoch was. This win, like the rest of his career, has made no impression on the casual fan whatsoever.

Froch is not even priced up among the Sports Personality possibles. Not even a mention at a million to 1. He is a complete and utter no-name. Sad

someone picked up on it in another thread, is it because he has a sh|t promoter?

if he had signed with warren he would have been on sky and that probably would have made all the difference

it is sad, he should be making a lot more money than he is

I've always liked Froch and reckon he'll win the Super Six.

He was a brilliant Amateur let's not forget and it showed against AA.

If he fights Johnson the same way he wins in a similar fashion.

Maybe he's started realising he can win fights without Brawling

Whn he turned pro, I told everbody to wqtch out for him, coz he would be World Champion. He really impressed me the AMs, but the AA fight was the first time I have seen him fight 'disciplined' for 12 rounds. Just shows he does have the tools as a Pro. I still think that his defence (lack of) will be his downfall eventually though.

Wasn't Carls Brother selling tickets Froch needs to get away from Mick, he is useless! Even Haymaker would do a better job..! Carl & David could alternate top billings while Groves gets regular action on the under-card.
