    Is froch comparable to benn or eubank ?

    The three being british and considered warrior would you put froch to the level of Nigel Benn, chris eubank or steve collins... I personally like benn and eubank as boxers and imo they both beat the hell out of froch even if he has leonard, hearns kind of skills LOL

    The version of Eubank Calzaghe fought would slaughter and KO Froch in my opinion. Froch is a joke, that is why no one sticks up for him other then Haye.

        No. Froch really isn't that good. He's tough and everything, but he's nothing special.

          Benn, Eubank and Collins were all better than Froch.

            i guess you could say he's similar to eubank cause they both got gift decisions to help their careers. eubank got gift decisions cause he got huge rating and they didn't want to destroy that where as froch gets no ratings but needed the gift to get the 2 points to help him out in the tournament.

                I dont know if he has achieved as much, but he is along those boxers lines and comparable. He is a british world champion. He is confident like they were.

                I would love to have seen Froch versus Benn. We didnt see froch vs JC, but i think froch vs benn would be a better spectacle.

                  I have a question: Have we, boxing fans, become so used to daylight highway robberies we instantly give credit to someone based on what a simple hometown cooked bogus decision? I mean i really hope not.

                  Take MMA for instance, Machida, the undefeated karate guy has clearly lost his fight in another highway robbery, the talk today is "Machida exposed" "Most elusive, my ass" "Flaw - Karate stance leaves front leg vulnerable". He was awarded a bogus UD but people are still clear minded enough to know he did not win the fight (or any of the rounds for that matter only the first being close).

                  In boxing we judge fighters on the paper only it appears. We have fighters like Froch who are awarded bogus decisions and are hyped just a few days later like they actually won the fight in impressive fashion. They don't give out rematches too. It's sad and funny at the same time, it's like a coward gay community at least some of you are definitely ****s. Even though you act all tough you are needy for man-love . It's all good though, just don't come near me with your or flawed arguments.
