damn froch is getting on my damn nerves. dude u just got out of a close decision win with andre dirrell. STFU and fix the mistakes you made. if not kessler, then i hope andre ward takes this chump to school, or Abraham knocks this dude out cold! shut his mouth up someone please! he's starting to irritate me.
It is going to be hilarious after this weekend. Froch will have lost and then Calzaghe will start barking back about how he beat Kessler and Froch couldn't. Froch would have gotten humiliated so badly in the ring against Calzaghe that he would have retired immediately after the fight.
Calzaghe would have smacked Froch around and then ran off with Froch's girlfriend to do coke lines off her a*s in a hotel room somewhere.
Froch is certainly much more braver than Joe Calzaghe. He isn't afraid to fight anybody, at home or in their back yard. Sadly, Joe was content on staying in the UK, fighting mediocre opposition for the majority of his career. We will never really know how good he was, or wasn't.
I believe that Froch will retire with a better resume than Calzaghe, and in time he will also be remembered as the greater fighter by boxing fans. If he beats Kessler and then maybe Abraham or even Dirrell again, he would have overtaken Calzaghe in my estimations.
Im all up for hoping Froch does well for England now that JC has retired, but he shouldnt have a go at JC.
JC did beat an old BH, but BH was still doing grreat things still. Beating Tarver and Pavlik etc.
Plus JC beat Kessler when kessler was the man, and Lacy. If JC wasnt good he would have been exposed and found out by the decent boxers he fought.
Eubank was still very good, and he admits JC was very good, so Froch should acknowledge it as well.
Froch hasnt beaten as many or even as good opponents as JC yet. Not saying he wont though.
I hope Calzaghe comes out of retirement and gives Froch a brutal lesson and that's saying a lot since I fukking hate Calzaghe as well
Calz most liekly will lose.
He's gone a lil fat and I think his style and output, you ened to be fit as hell and constantly training.
think about kessler froch. and dont act like a child becuase no TV networks want to pay to see you fight. your slow, unskilled and lucky. and the all-time-great comment? i wont even bother
I'm a big fan of Carl (as I was of Joe) but he's starting to just make himself just look like a hater now. Froch jus needs to get over to Denmark finally and concentrate on Kessler. If Calzaghe comes back he's gonna start off with a bum and then maybe fight a Glen Johnson or someone of that caliber. He isn't gonna wait around till 2012 when Carl is out of the Super Six plus I can't see Joe coming back to 168 anyway at his age, it will be 175 at the lightest and at that weight people will want a Dawson fight more than a Froch fight although in the UK Calzaghe-Froch is bigger but can it wait till 2011/2012? I doubt plus by then Froch will get as much credit from boxing fans for beating Calzaghe as Joe did by beating a past it RJJ.
Let it go Carl, why are none of ur comments about your opponents, i can understand trash talking your opponents to get you motivated and to get them anoyed and off their game, but why are u trash talking a retired boxer that even if he came out of retirement you can not fight because you have the supper 6, stop using Calzaghe's name to get forums talking about you!!!
Why do you think Froch will get KO'd? Why does everyone think Kessler is so good? I mean maybe I'm missing something about Kessler, but I never thought he was that good ever. His best wins are Andrade and Mundine. I'm not the hugest Kessler fan, so maybe I'm missing some other notable wins on his resume?
Styles makes fights.
Froch is open and runs in with wide shots.
Kessler is a pretty hard hitting guy who has fast, has straight shots and stands his ground.
It's gonna look like Pascal-Froch I feel, but Kessler is a slightly more proven fighter.
Dirrell won in my eyes, but his running didn't help. He was still green and did a lot of wrong things yet won in my eyes.
Taylor already put him down and was winning by a huge margin until the 10th. Taylor's chin let him down and his obvious stamina issues.
Kessler isn't great, but look at Froch's wins also.
Pascal was exciting but not any sign he was great. He just outpunched someone in his face and who was actually bending in to get hit.
Taylor damn nearly won until the KO. He could have if he took a knew or held the last 10 secs...
Dirrell actually schooled him and that fight was a bad night for Dirrell. He got robbed. Rabbit punches are wrong, no matter how much your opponent ducks. The ref deducated a point from Dirrell aswell...
Everyone else like Reid, etc... all out of prime. Heck the rest are mainly bums
Is Froch actually that good? Well, he's slow, wide, open, has bad footwork.
He has beaten a lot of bums, and these guys are more bum and domestic level. Atleast kessler beat some good names.
Froch has won on sheer power, workrate, heart and chin. Not a bad combo because he did become a world champ. However in boxing, at the top, he will need more to beat Ward, Bute and Dirrell. (Yes Dirrell is a better fighter now than before, and won in my eyess, but OK let's rematch it baby)
As for Calzaghe, his style was too fast, too fluid and too much for Froch. Calzaghe wouldn't get hit and has a difficult rhythm to time. You gotta hit and hold.
Froch hits and hits, but he will be msising and tbh, Froch is the Uk version of Lacy.
