Carl Froch The Next Big British Star?

[BattlingNelson]

In reply to BatTheMan

He's not a big draw at the moment, but i was saying with a World Title around his waist, and with Hatton and Calzaghe on the way out, the UK will be looking for it's new representitives. Haye and Froch are the men to take the mantle.

Through UK Boxing fans, Kessler is mainly known as the best SMW after Calzaghe, and a fight between Froch and Kessler would draw big interest, especially to see how Froch would fair against a former Calzaghe opponent who is still regarded as being prime.

But 30,000 people is a big crowd, although Froch's only interest of a fight abroad lies in America.

Kessler likewise. I just dont think Taylor, Hopkins or Winky will want to fight either so a big euro unification showdown just could make some sense.

Froch will get my respect if he can defeat Taylor or Kessler! I think Taylor didn't want to fight him because Froch was not a big name and there were bigger names he could fight. I think the same about Calzaghe, Froch has been calling Calzaghe out for ages but Calzaghe didn't fight him because there were bigger names out there. If Froch can win the WBC title he'll get the credibility and Taylor will have to fight him! Then if he can beat Taylor he'll get his respect and could draw the big names to fight him!

You said Taylor wants bigger names what like Lacy? A guy who is washed up who can bearly beat manfredo. Nah he was scared to fight froch big time. A fight for the WBC Super Middleweight Title or a fight against a guy who has been finished for sometime. No way i cant wait to see Froch v Taylor if Taylor ever gets some nuts to face a guy who can fight back. Oh yea you will reply now and say he beat hopkins twice who cares if he fought hopkins now he would be schooled mate.

Froch is fighting PASCAL for the WBC title! Taylor fought Lacy to become No. 1 Contender for WBC title! Taylor probably got more money fighting Lacy than he would've fighting an unproven Froch. Froch IS GOOD I've already said it, I'm not hating on him or you but who has he fought. The biggest name YOU said he fought was Robin Reid! Oh yeah didn't that WASHED UP Lacy beat the living hell out of Robin Reid. You talk about Taylor ducking him didn't Calzaghe Duck him aswell? Nobody DUCKED Froch it's just the reward for fighting an unproven fighter wasn't there but it will be if he wins the WBC title!

No in the first place Taylor was meant to fight froch for the wbc title but then choose lacy. If it was the money thats fine but all i am saying is if he fought froch he wud of had a chance at wbc belt which to me means more than money. YES lacy beat reid and YES froch beat reid. But all i can say is froch is willing to fight anyone. TAYLOR is not JOE CALZAGHE calzaghe can take on who ever he wants because he is the BEST! As for Taylor i hope he takes on Froch and we will see who will be CRYING at the end because it wont be me.

There have been some great Super middleweight's to come out of britain! Benn, Eubank, Watson, Collins and the best of them all Joe Calzaghe. Most of these men became world champions and great to watch. Carl Froch? Most ppl have probably not even heard of him. He is undefeated in 23 fights and has 19wins by KO. Impressive? He hasnt really been tested yet he has a good win against an old Former World Champion Robin Reid. But the question is how far can he go? He has a WBC World title shot against Pascal. I believe he is the strongest the division of the Super middleweights have. Lacy, Taylor, Dennis Inkin who rejected 2 fight with him and Karoly Balzsay wouldnt be srong enough against him. The best fight he could get is Kessler that would be a test for him. But the Ultimate would be Calzaghe. I think Calzaghe would beat him but i think he is the only one that could. What do you think?

I have been watching Carl since he turned pro and always thought he would make a lot of noise at SMW. I still believe he will, only he hasn't had a chance to prove it yet.

I like Carl. He has an interesting style that's hard to deal with, tons of power and a great chin. I think people who doubt him are going to eat their words soon enough.

No, he's way short of elite level.

And how would you know that? I hate when people write off a fighter without seeing what he can really do. Give the boy a chance before making moronic statements.

Only time will tell but I don't think he'll be as big a star as Calzaghe, Hatton, Lewis etc... I think Kessler would take him and I think Jermain Taylor would get a UD over him! I could be wrong though and he may emerge as a big star but I can't see it. He is a good fighter though. I think he'll beat Pascal and I'm sure the mandatory for the WBC Super Middleweight title is Jermain Taylor so then we'll see what Froch is made of!

I reckon Froch would KO Taylor.

i don't think he'll ever be the best in a division

I have watched him, numerous times, and based on that viewing I can say with certainty in my own mind that he is way short of Elite level.

The people he is KO'ing so magnificently barely have a pulse bar a couple, I think as soon as he comes up to world level he will find his power hasn't followed him and his boxing skills aren't up to the task, that my opinion based on watching at least 10 of his fights.

Kessler isn't Elite level and Kessler would chew Froch up and spit him back out in 6 rounds.

er no. cant ever seeing him being more than a token titlist.

[S A M U R A I]

Hmmm. If Pavlik can KO Taylor, Froch can. I'm sure of it.
