Froch: I'm not a fan of Ali's boxing ability

I'm still quite baffled that you consider the statement "Ali was disrespectful toward Frazier" as a "Shocking statement". In what way is that shocking? Infact, in what way is that not the truth? :lol1: It's certainly more fact than fiction. Although we can always discuss how sincere it was.

As a boxing fan I'm offended that a crude wannabe like Froch can say he isn't a fan of Ali's boxing style. If you hold that opinion on Ali, you don't know boxing. Along with Ray Robinson, Ali was one of the greatest fights ever. Froch makes a lot of mistakes and if it wasn't for his chin, he'd be semi relevant. Dirrell, Ward, Kessler, Groves - all beat him IMO. Groves will box the SHlT out of him! So ... because Froch isnt as good as Ali he's not entitled to give his opinion ? Kinda warped way of thinking . First off he never disrespected Ali , he actually gave him his props . Second... EVERYONE who follows boxing knows his statement about Ali being VERY disrespectful to Frazier is true . Come on man...he called Smoking Joe a gorilla .

i loved that psychologist mention from froch lol, groves was rambling on and on about it trying to own him and sh1t was funny as hell. but in all seriousness, this is no big deal.. some people dont like it all if any criticism thrown at the classic top ATG of boxing. no fighter is perfect

ali was an absolute d*ck to frazier

If you are talking about the 2nd fight then your opinion means nothing. That fight wasn't close at all. Of course it was close, don't be silly. It was a close but ultimately clear win from Froch.

That's his opinion and he is allowed to have one, no everyone can or did appreciate Ali.

Dirrell, Ward, Kessler, Groves - all beat him IMO. Groves will box the **** out of him! If you are talking about the 2nd fight then your opinion means nothing. That fight wasn't close at all.

I've seen a couple of thread on this subject today. Froch is entitled to his opinion. He's not being disrespectful.

I'm not a fan of "The Greatest" either. And no, he's not the greatest. The Klits would've beaten his @ss in his f**kin' prime!

This happens in all sports. Alot of people don't like Kobe or Lebron but they are universally recognized as two of the best players ever I see nothing wrong with what he said

Have a look at the Froch vs Groves video. Froch speaking to Groves: "I am an International Boxing Star" :lol1: Hell yeah Froch is arrogant, but that aside, I can respect his opinion about Ali. Plus it kinda fits Froch's mentality to not favor perceived finesse fighters. Froch admitted without hesitation that he lost to ward, but complained vigorously about the way Ward won -- Using tricks and slick methods. Don't know many prize fighters who aren't arrogant.

Everyone are entitled to be a fan of whoever they like and whatever style they like.

He's entitled to his opinions. My opinion of his jab is that it's the Worse Jab I've ever SEEN! hahaha!!! So why wouldn't he not think much of Ali's jab. Ray.

Funny because Froch's style looks like a very poor, footwork-less, no head movement version of Ali's style. Literally 100s of top boxer's styles is biting off of Ali's style. He has one of the most influential styles of boxing in the history of boxing. i think he's more like a poor man's roy jones.

Ali was very disrespectful towards Frazier. Ali ran too much I guess for Froch.
