Say what you want about Car Froch , but...............

I cant remember Joe Calzaghe's first 3 defences of his SPMW World Title being in the calibre of :

Pascal , Taylor & Dirrell . (I know Pascal was for the vacant title but still)

The guy is 3 & 0 against all of the above love him or hate him respect is deserved !!!!!!!

It's true but neither of them have been very convincing wins, he's been dominated in 2 of them.

Froch is not the most skilled individual, so you can say he is over-achieving, but you cannot take the wins away from him.

True Taylor did dominate him in the early rounds, but Froch came on strong late on and stopped him. You can blame it on Taylor's stamina all you want, but everyone was saying that would be a factor before the fight. Everybody knows Taylor is far more skilled then Froch, so what was so suprising about him being out-boxed? Important thing is Froch got the TKO. No disputes.

Dirrell is a different story. I had Dirrell win by 2 rounds, but nobody can say they were impressed with Andre can they? Also, hometown decision is a load of bull, seeing that all 3 judges and the ref were from out of Europe.

Did Dirrell fight the type of fight, with the type of style I like to see, no. So while I was unimpressed in that regard, Froch did even less and left me even more unimpressed.

It doesn't matter where the judges are from, these guys were easily swayed by the crows cheering for punches that didn't even land.

Calzaghe's wins over Eubank, Kessler and Bhop are all better wins than those.

Froch struggling with Dirrell? Calzaghe would have mopped the floor with all of those guys including Froch. Calzaghe could probably hit training camp now after being inactive all this time and still win every round against Froch.
