This writer trolls British boxing fans, to the point where his nonsense can sometimes be amusing and frustrating in equal measure but I did enjoy the criteria he sets out for Froch to become an all time great:

I think Froch can beat Dirrell, Bute, Stevenson, Kessler, Quillin, Oosthuizen, Golovkin, Chavez Jr.
I'm not sure about Martinez, he will probably never fight Dawson and imo will never beat Ward.
Which of the fighters on that list do you see Froch beating?
Here’s what Froch will have to do in order for him to be an all-time great in my book: He’ll have to beat the following fighters for me to consider him in that category:
Andre Dirrell – in a neutral venue and without controversy like last time
Andre Ward
Lucian Bute – in Montreal
Adonis Stevenson
Mikkel Kessler – without controversy
Sergio Martinez
Peter Quillin
Thomas Oosthuizen
Gennady Golovkin
Julio Cesar Chavez Jr
Chad Dawson
If Froch can run the table on all of these guys in beating them, then I see him an all-time great, but until then I just see him one of the three paper champions at 168. The only real champion I see in the super middleweight division is Andre Ward.
