Reid is a shadow of his former self although he was when he fought Lacy but that didn't stop many from getting excited by the performance.

The guy is coming up for 37 and struggled against a fighter like Brinkley last time out although with little preparation.

If Frotch has aspirations of greatness he should be too sharp and motivated for an ageing Reid.

LoL

Yep, he is just a name these days.

Sorry Rob (hes a mate of mine) and he comes on here.

Perhaps he can call Eubank or Benn out for some more names on his record....

Robin Ried is good test for Carl Fronch even though he is old.

Is Froch crazy or what hes fighting bums and thinks hes eligable to fight the winner of Calzaghe v Kessler if he beats Reid its a shame reid is not the fighter he was cause Froch would be in for a real shock IMO

by the way im not calling Reid a bum he was a good champion

The Froch strategy:

Call out the two guys with much better options!
Now you got yourself an excuse to find someone you can beat with ease..

Frochs answer to all critics is; blame it on Calzaghe for not making the fight.

Agreed, Reid was an excellent fighter and gave Calzaghe his toughest fight IMO.

[oovavu]

how many stepping stones is he going to have? I like him but hes no spring chicken himself, reid how ever old he is is going to be a tough test but i see froch coming through, he does need to step it up maybe travelling to fight some names hes not big enough to be able to fight exclusively in the uk.
