    He's lucky he wasn't in the ring with Taylor or Kessler tonight.


    Sc****s by Taylor but Kessler kills him.

    Froch wont fight anyone just stay at home.

      Whilst I agree that Froch does have weaknesses he is a very dangerous fighter.

      I wonder of all those who have voiced opinions of him in this thread, how may of you have actually followed his career, in fact how many of you have seen him fight before tonight's win???

      I have watched Taylor on numerous occasions and feel Froch would have a 50/50 shot against him due to his strength but I feel that Kessler has an all round better style with a solid chin and great power and that he would beat Froch over 12.

        Froch,Andrade,Bika,Pascal

        Just make them all fight eachother.

        shag the belts.....and Kessler and Taylor. Just keep sticking them on big cards against eachother.

        Shame they aren't all British.

        That would be the greatest Super Middleweight era in terms of great, competitive fights imo.

        I'd be tempted to through Miranda in there but I think their all to big and tough for him.

          Froch has the worst defense ever, and pascals defense isn't much better... But I like pascal, so I won't pick pascal apart.
          you really are ****ing dumb, your post was an epic fail.

            What???

            Firstly a cut is a lottery and statically very rarely effects the outcome on the decision of fights across the globe plus what does Kessler have in his gloves that you can make that statement??? Shards of glass???

              no doubt. what do you think mick would offer Bute to come to Nottingham for unification?

              I have heard Bute gets min $500,000 per fight now

                Miranda is a ***** compared to them. No point.

                I love the SMW division. You've got two greats in Calzaghe and Kessler (well, 1 now I suppose) and some very very competitive guys just below that - Bute, Froch, Andrade, Taylor, Pascal, Mundane, Bika ... even Abraham and Pavlik to pop up among others. It's my favourite division, even ahead of WW and LW, and there's just so many good fights there. Not with Calzaghe though - they'd be battered. Froch really needs to shut up about that but he seems to have conceded that it just isn't an option now.

                  I saw him fight Pascal tonight, I saw him fight Reid, I watched him fight that Polish guy who was a replacement brought in on the day, I saw him fight Dodson and awile ago against someone called Page for the british title. Not live but i have seen them, he's a limited, tough fighter but he's get killed by the elite at 168.

                      you asked a question to the people that had voiced opinions of him no? you asked whether they had followed his career and if they had seen him fight before tonight.

                      I voiced and opinion therefore I am part of the group you were asking the question to....
