I rewatched Froch's Pascal and Taylor fight and came away with the feeling that he's underrated here. No one has ever really touted him as the best in the division either.
People were saying Kessler was the #1 Super Middleweight after Calzaghe left the division. I kept saying he wasn't because Bute looked like the goods to me even after the first Andrade fight, though he did lose that fight.
Froch has the better wins. Kessler's biggest fight was losing to Calzaghe. Kessler's biggest win was against Andrade, who is an even slower, less exciting, and less skilled version of Antonio Margarito.
Ward made Kessler look like an amateur in there. And to think he actually gave Calzaghe trouble in the early rounds. Like Berto, Froch make look amateurish at times, but he wins in pretty exciting fights like when he came back from behind against Taylor.
Do people get high from calling froch overrated everyones doing it its like a craze.
Im gonna give it ago.
Froch is overrated.......

Nothing yet.
Andre "Billy Goat" Ward is the most overrated.
Without
1) his crooked home ref who lets him foul as much as he wants and then admonishes the other fighter, and
2) without his steroid Balco-founding doctor,
Ward would be a mediocre fighter who wouldn't even be able to stop a journeyman like Edison Miranda. :)
Interesting, i dont remember mentioning him
