    Boxing needs more like him IMO. I used to think he and Pascal were giant loudmouth tools, but since that time they have stepped up and have no issues testing themselves.

    *******s only take the talk, but if they are willing to walk it also, all is forgiven. More power to them.
    Agreed. And Froch has certainly done that.

      Exactly. I mean his competition in the last 8 months, and over the next year ****s all over Calzaghe's over Calzaghe's entire career. Say what you want, but he is not protecting himself that is for sure.

        After the next three fights Froch will have a resume that is better than Calzaghes. He will have only had 28 fights as well.

          He can come across as arrogant and I can totally understand why so many will want to see him knocked out. I've watched him for quite a few years and have warmed to his blatant over confidence.

          He does make for exciting fights, he is always in condition. I've also heard that he is good for making time for his fans and is obliging and helpful to up and comers in the gym.

          I do favour him to win this tornament too, but he wont find it easy.

            Yep, I do. In short, he's fantastic for boxing and a stellar guy. Long may he run.

              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.

                    Froch has never said he can become the greatest ever, unlike that delusional **** Dirrell.
