    Of course he means to say it with him losing, why bring it up if he didn't?

        I don't suppose you asked him his thoughts on the super six tourny did you?
        No I didnt... we didnt really get into that

        Although He likes Carl Froch... he made some comments on Froch being a very tough fighter and testing you all 12 rounds... beatable.. but you have to earn it.

            As long as you provide some angles Froch should be pretty damn easy to beat. I like the guy, but he has some KO losses waiting for him.

              BUT REED

              I was calm, but it irks me. Especially since Kelly has played off all sorts of excuses.

                Never cared for Dan's corner instructions, he kinda reminds me of Loew for some reason.

                  Hopkins took his heart, and fighting spirit away, is that not enough.? The man is getting in bar fights, and gets infections from fingering ****** Youngstown ***** dawg.

                    well i dont know what to tell you, he said it, he came off as an extremely genuine down to earth kind of guy, and had no reason at all to lie about it... if kelly had a fever, he had a fever... dan mentioned it... thats it... take it as you want too..

                      I agree. He doesn't stick to the fundamentals (which when he applies, he controls fights), and that will be his downfall. All the men in the super six have their faults, but Kessler is clearly the favourite as the likes of Dirrell and Ward are too green to tell just yet.

                      One thing about Froch is that he will give you one hell of a fight, even if he were to lose, you know you had to put some extra effort to get there.
