    Is Carl Froch currently the most overrated fighter?

    I think so.

    Let's not forget that he was behind on the scorecards, against a prime-past Taylor.

    Now, coming off an embarrassing loss to Dirrell, he should be lucky if he gets past the 6th round against Kessler.

    hardly anyone rates him highly on here, which considering he is an undefeated world champion makes him underrated, surely ?

      He's not undefeated.

          Those 3 names are close to Calzaghes resume.. probably over

          @ TS how **** can be overated everyone ****s on him here lol.. he lacks skills and stuff but no one can deny his willpower and those 3 names mentioned are good names even if you think Dirrel won.

              If anything, Froch is one of the most underrated fighters.

                He doesn't even deserve his current rating.

                Some people actually consider him to be a top 3 super middleweight. Terrible.

                  I tend to agree. Froch doesn't get enough credit for those wins. Reason being his obvious limitations and not-so-silky-smooth skills.

                    I wouldnt say he was over-rated as most British fans take him for what he is. A limited fighter skill / technique wise, but a big puncher, a fighter with big-heat (and as he holds his hands low and likes to come forward and fight) an exciting and good fighter. I think people right him off as his style isnt always pleasing on the eyes, but hes a tough fighter to beat.

                    Im a fan and looking at his record, unbeaten with wins against Pascal, Taylor and Dirrell looks good. Not to sure on the out-come of his Kessler fight though, tough one to call.
