Froch compares himself to Leonard...

[NakiFan]

What a plonka he is gonna feel when he gets Lacy'd

You need your head checking.

Froch is about a million times better than no hook and Dirrell is about 50 billion times worse than Calzaghe

[Bushidō]

Is this guy serious?

I'm honestly not sure if he believes what he says but its some funny stuff. I'm curious if he talked like this before the Taylor fight

[Cadillac Man]

I like Froch!

Can't wait for Klitschko 2009 to come and say how Carl Froch would KO Leonard...

CARL FROCH wishes he had been born 20 years earlier because it would have meant beatings for ring legends Marvin Hagler, Thomas Hearns and Sugar Ray Leonard.

You might think the WBC super-middleweight champion has taken too many shots with such wild boasts, but the outspoken boxer isn't around to win popularity contests.

Froch, 32, said: "Top fighters at top level can fight each other 10 times and it isn't going to be 10-0 to one man. I would have been in the mix with Hagler, Hearns and Leonard. Hagler was a fighter and a brawler and I can do that, but I can also box, use my range and boxing skills.

"I'd have not quite done a Sugar Ray Leonard on him but done half a Leonard and half a Hearns. It would have been a mixture of the two.

"I have a better chin than Hearns and I have got some of Leonard's skills. Domestically, Chris Eubank was skilful but crude. Nigel Benn was just a brawler, Steve Collins was just a tough brawler. I don't consider them to have been that hot and I could have beaten all three.

"I would have been a massive superstar in that era."

Nottingham's Froch, unbeaten in all 25 fights, believes he will finally get recognition if he wins the £30million Super Six World Boxing Classic.

He must win five fights inside the next 18 months against rivals including Mikkel Kessler and Arthur Abraham to be crowned king.

The Cobra's first fight in the event to discover the world's top 12-stoner is against the American Andre Dirrell at the Trent FM Arena in Nottingham on Saturday. That's followed by Kessler in Copenhagen next March, and Abraham in Britain. The other contestants are Jermain Taylor and Andre Ward.

Each boxer will have three bouts against different opponents in the group stage. A win will be worth two points with one point bonus for a KO or stoppage. A draw will be worth one point.

The top four will go into the semi-finals, where the points leader will box the fourth-placed fighter.

The final is due to tak

If Froch can win the Super Six tourney... he has a good point.

If he can win.

Froch is a tough guy wit volume and some power. He ain't a technician wit a lotta moves to him, or at least he ain't shown it. Froch ain't even that quick.

[Blue Heffner]

I literally laughed when I saw the title. Froch is crazy, and.....he is dead serious. R.I.P. Carl Froch on October 17th. People think Froch's chin and power will win him the fight. I think Dirrell's speed, moving around alot, and stance switching will confuse the hell out of Froch.

[Xcusemymood]

I hate this guy more and more each day.

[ThePunchingBag]

This fool got dropped by Jermain Taylor! Mofo must have downed a few pints if he think he can go toe to toe with Sugar or Hagler... **** it, even a prime DLH would've whooped his punch drunk ass.

[thewinfella]

Cant wait to see what excuse he comes up with after Direll KO's him !!!!!!! .
