Does anyone really like Carl Froch

[D-MiZe]

I just love listening to the commentators.

They were so convinced he'd lose and then BAM.

I used to dislike him a lot, but then I decided that he's being tongue-in-cheek with his arrogance. Witness how he said "big respect Jermain" to Taylor after their fight.

If you see him boasting, tell yourself he's joking and see if you like him more.

Man's hilarious.



In that Morrell type Midlands accent,

"Come on, don't worry, it's only boxing - get out yer armchair and come and have a fiiiight. Come and have a good old scrap on t'cobbles."

Classic Danny.

You can say that again.

Dude talks too much, but he came up big in his title fights wit pascal and Taylor. Both were good fights and both he overcame some difficulty to win. I ain't exactly a big Froch fan, but I like watchin him fight.

There's boxers whom can have the occasional arrogance, show boating, but it be clear its just that and not too over bearing.

But he's like it ALL the time, because quite simply, he's progressively become an annoying big headed ****.

Some interviews of him a couple of years ago he was no way near as ****y.

So that's why I don't like him as well, its not like hes always been like it to this extent, he's steadily becoming more and more of an annoying impersonal ****.

He's not getting quite the fan following or TV chasing in the UK for those reasons, he demanded too much money of the networks yet said he's not in it for the money. He thinks he's the draw in most fights when he's not. Along with the fact he's no way near as good as he and many now believe.

I do find it funny also, how suddenly you become a very good boxer, just for being entertaining against better known opposition, but without showing massive signs of improvement or major amounts of skill.

Taylor was winning and gassed. Froch is quite simply not winning this tournament and it'll be good to see his excuses after wards.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

Originally I thought he talked too much, but the guy gives it everything he's got in the ring.

It's pretty hard to not have at least a little bit of respect for any of the 6 guys in the tournament.

Yes, TS. A lot of people really like Carl Froch. Granted, I don't think anybody likes him quite so much as he likes himself, but he's a hell of a boxer (well... hell of a fighter, his 'boxing' abilities are somewhat in question) who is GOOD for boxing. I don't see a reasonable argument to suggest otherwise.

[D-MiZe]

He's allowed to be somewhat ****y after his ordeal with Taylor.

Carl who?
