You fought them all, Cobra. Much respect. And thanks for removing Bute from the equation. No worries, there's many of us who couldn't care less about the Groves fights - dude suckd anyway. You ripped my heart out when you beat Jermain, but after I recovered, I was a fan.
"it grates on me a little bit that that’s what most people remember me for"
Well, you did mention it every day for a decade.
Wow
Carl doesn't just want to be remembered for that one fight
But Carl Froch mentioned the 80k stadium full Crowd & massive knockout he achieved in every interview he did afterwards
Yeah the Bute performance was quality from Froch even tho Bute was overrated he never fought outside of Canada before that fight and the opponents he fought were average or faded former champions think his best win at that point was Sakio Bika or an ancient Glen Johnson. I always fought Frochs most underrated performance was when he won his first world title against Jean Pascal and his best performance was when he beat Arthur Abraham. Nobody had beat Abraham convincingly up to that point
Froch can be a jerk but I don't hate on the Froch because he believes Bute was the bigger accomplishment because it was. The Groves rematch was great but Lucian Bute, at that time, was a fight he was sure to lose. Carl was the underdog and probably the only time in his career that fans overlooked his shyty personality and actually wanted him to win.
Nobody wanted him to win the Groves rematch...me included
