The British media are great at hyping there fighters,
The British fans aren't the sharpest and are fairly easy to convince.
I am reading on here from British posters comments like "is Carl Froch the best British fighter ever?"
It's pretty embarrassing.
Let's be honest here, the British media did a great job hyping up Bute before Froch knocked him out. He went life and death with a past it Mikkel Kessler,
He was outboxed by an old washed up Jermain Taylor and they robbed a Andre Dirrell in the UK.
Got completely outclassed by Andre Ward and now he's afraid to rematch him,
Despite not even deserving the chance to do so.
George Groves? Who the f*ck is he? What has he done? Which world champions has he beaten? What even warranted him to fight Froch? He outboxed Froch and exposed him for the majority of the rounds over the last two fights.
Inexperience unfortunately got the better of him in the second fight and he was robbed in the first.
In your opinion, do you think Froch is overrated?
Not Frochs fault Ward has the drawing power of a independent b grade Bosnian romantic comedy.
But it is Ward's fault that Froch can't be seen as thee champ in a division where he's beaten every belt holder.....he scooped a belt off of Bute....then took Kessler's WBA strap....Abraham is the current WBO champ, Froch took his heart and DOMINATED him in the S6
Ward is the ONLY one who went untamed....the thing is this, I picked Froch to beat Ward because I didn't think Ward was THAT good.....beating Froch with one hand convinced me that Ward is the truth because Froch is definitely the real deal......nothing hyped about that man!!
How if Froch a hype job? The man is nearly 37 years old and his performances speak for themselves. His is an all-time great super middleweight in my book.
Technically he's awful.
He has a strange awkward style.
His chin is GRANITE.
Heart is GRANITE.
I think everything he got he deserved and really has to be respected even if you don't like him.

Maybe Floyd is overated as he calls himself the best ever, yet he went life and death with Maidana.?
Carl Froch is not overated, but it depends on who is doing the rating. George Groves didn't make him out as if he was God, neither does Degale.
But he has accomplished quite a lot so why not decorate him with accolades?
This is hilariously classic. A Floyd fan labeling another fighter a hype job and asking him to be a "warrior" and take on all comers. You honestly can't make this type of **** up :lol1:
ya i was thinking the same thing all though i still dont buy that floyd is scarred of anyone but in saying that froch has fought all comers thats why this thread makes no sense. Because he wont fight ward who he already lost to? thats bs if anything ward is pathetic for wanting it

disagree highly the guy dont have best skills but hes got heart and he gets wins and thats why people like him it has nothing to do with britain this last fight got him national respect
Froch is a monster and only ridiculous fans who have no real knowledge of the sport would say otherwise. Froch has fought anyone and everyone. Wouldn't be surprised with much bigger fights now and in the future.
I don't think he's a hype job at all, he's faced better, quicker opponents than him and has beaten most of them. He deserves a place in the HOF when his career is over. He can safely say that he's faced the best of his era and beaten most of them.
However I do think his fans go overboard and overrate him at times. Most fans do that, but Froch fans take it to another level.
Froch is a good fighter. Just because a guy is slow and awkward it doesn't mean he can't fight.
People bash his skills and then praise the skills of Amir Khan :rofl:
strongly disagree. carl froch is quite possibly THE greatest fighter to ever come out of the UK.
his KO win against groves is the best win any current fighter has had in awhile.
I wouldn't say he is the greatest fighter that ever come out the UK.. Maybe of his generation!! I would have like to see him in there with Benn Eubanks Colin's Calzaghe Watson.. I don't think Froch could of beat any of these guys... IMO
Disagree, I think he is still a bit Underrated especially here in the US. Many P4P list barely has him in the Top 10 but yet he probably has the Best Resume (Win or Lose) in boxing today.
I can't hate Froch because he has a few stupid fans on a forum in which them tend to overrated him simply because he is from the UK like they are.
HAHA. Man, you got to be a Brit. Froch won't take on all comers that's the thing. He won't take on Ward and avenge his loss cuz he's a "spoiler" namsayin?
Froch is a fuc.king bum that lost to Peter Manfredo Jr. in the Amateurs.
The guy got a couple wins, but also got a couple gifts. Far from beast status.
Stfu, you illustrate perfectly while people think Americans are retarded.
