Carl Froch: "If I Was Ricky Hatton, I Would Retire"

[The_Bull]

Why??? So you can call him out every chance you get?

[Corizz]

So he criticises a 36 year old Calzaghe for retiring on a suitable win.

But he advises a 30 year old Hatton to retire on a loss.


Odd. And were still supposed to take this guy seriously!?!

Its the way he lost. The fight wasnt even close. It was as lopsided as i have ever seen a fight. I agree. He wont ever be a great righter. Why not walk away before you get hurt in there even worse. If Hatton was to lose, but made it through 12 rounds and was fine. I wouldnt have any problems saying, maybe he can get better, but 2 round knock out to a way smaller guy like that. The knock out was brutal!!!!!!!1

Did anyone else recoil in shock when they discovered that this is the first time Froch has had an interview without mentioning Calzaghe

[MissDeeCole]

carl froch would like it best if he were the only boxer in the entire UK

[Lacrimosa]

Hire Freddie Roach as a trainer, fire Floyd Sr. and have couple of fights more, Ricky...

Ricky Hatton showed that he can`t fight top p4p, but before he have also showed that he is a good boxer and can defeat many good fighters... I don`t mind him fighting any other LWW champion and earn some money... He only should forget about becoming top p4p...

Good luck, Ricky Hatton.

Carl froch is a knob.

When a fight turns out like this then most boxers would advise him to retire, Even billy graham just said on skysports that hatton should retire and i dont blame them for saying it, The way he lost isnt good at all.

[Kris Silver]

So Froch criticises Calzaghe at 36 beating Hops, but it's fine for him at 30 now doing it?

I hope it does happen, because he'll lose.

Suitable win? Sorry... But.. No....Just...No
Joe never went against the elite class Prime v Prime once. Had he gone against Prime Hopkins and Prime RJJ, he would have ended up the same as Hatton. That is why Froch criticizes him. I Mean come on dude, we're talking about a guy who's bet win is Lacy, and Tomato-Can-KIller Kessler here.

As for Hatton, he is right. Whenever Hatton faces the Elite, Prime v Prime (something Joe never did once), he gets KTFO badly

[MOTHER DUCKER]

What ever you say about his resume Calslappy was a top fighter unlike fatman lol he actually had skills, shame his hands were so ****ed up tho. Froch is right tho Hatton was woefully outmatched at top level, i remeber Ricky before hand only wanting top level fights.. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN NOW HA!
