      Froche is not overhyped. If anything he is one of the most "bashed" boxers on the scene.

      maybe not in the mainstream american media...but everyone who follows the boxing media has heard more abut froch that he deserved us to hear about him...

      dudes simply an ok fighter who is slow as molasses..

          Hatton wasn't over hyped, but when your time is up, it's up. Froch and Haye aren't over hyped either, atleast I wouldn't considered them so, we just have to seem them with better opposition.

          Then there is Khan...biggest and probably the most qualified hype job the Brits have. Chinny Khan is THEE hype job.

                Yeah it's hypocricy. Try going to live in the Arab world and see how tolerant they will be of you if you are a Christian. They F'ing murder Christian children. The west is much more tolerant.

                  i do think pre pbf there was a ton of hype on here about hatton ... but that died down quite a lot after the 1st loss and is dead as a dog now ....

                  buncey goes a bit too far for me but for the most part i dont think khan and haye are overhyped. there world class no question about that and still young in age and careers ...

                    unfortunately, many boxing fans do...especially the british, IMO...and british fans always seem to have an agenda, IMO...

                    so, i figured i'd put it to a vote...which british boxers are overhyped, and which are worth talking about on a national stage...

                    personally, i think khan is least worth discussing...other than that, no british fighter excites me, with the other three i can think of as haye, hatton, and froch...
                    froch is fcukin wank. only that slimshandy ****** overhypes him. as for espescially the british, i can think of plenty of overrated yanks.

                      It doesn't change the fact that he was the best CW in the world thus making him world class.
