Comments Thread For: Froch: "I'll Never Get The Recognition From British Media"

[English puncher]

dirrel boxed his ears off

what as he was running like a headless chicken around the ring....hugging like a ****ing ****sexual! lacy got his ears boxed off against calzaghe, gatti against mayweather (as much as it pains me to say) and pac vs de la hoya....or minter against hagler.....froch is a old school warrior, i read somebody says he cant punch on here ... ? and he is boring???? some people really aint got a clue, win or lose froch will fight to the death, if you cant admire that then go watch ****ing NETBALL or VOLLYBALL!

of course he will if he unifies the belts. Calzaghe got no coverage until he fought Lacy. He was basically unknown outside boxing circles, as Froch is now.

I think the British fans prefer guys who are down to earth and confident not ****y.

Froch is fighting the tougher opposition as of late compared to Haye and Khan. Yet, he does get screwed by the British media. Probably because he talks about another fighter who British people love like Calzaghe on a negative note. Crapping on someone that fans love, yeah that will win you fans! Cong**** brainiac!

If froch beats kessler and definatly if he beats abraham, i'd argue he has the better record.....froch fighting the big dogs wilst cal wasted alot of time fighting the tucker pudwills of this world....im a huge calzaghe fan, but the proofs in the pudding if were being honest with ourselves!

froch is a good champion who never duks any fight.

the reason why no-one likes him is because he'[s arrogant and go'[s on and on about other British boxers. he's always complaining. he also tried making his name of Calzaghe when no-one in the UK even heard of him (not that you Brits know him now!) he also got a hometown decision against Direll which got him more hate.

the guys a multi millionnaire, got a hot girlfriend but he moans and moans like a whore

Froch doesn't get the media attention cos he's BORING to watch and lacks charisma.

Sorry Mr Froch, I will tune in and hopefully watch you get beat by Kessler come this Saturday, and I'm a brit. Doesn't say much for you does it.

Although I don't agree with those who say Froch is boring or talentless, perhaps it is more the statements like "I'm known well enough already for it to take me 2 hours to do my shopping" and other laughable statements that make it hard for some to stomach. I could be wrong but during one of the Fight 360 episodes didn't it show him taking a flight just like an everyday average joe, only to now show up a day late in Denmark for "personal reasons" in a private jet to make damn sure he would get the attention he wanted when he arrived?
For a man who says he doesn't strive or make a fuss about being famous, he sure does an awful lot of complaining about not getting enough recognition. Oh well, atleast they recognize him at the grocery store.

Froch deserves credit for his heart and toughness, and his aggressive style, but Haye and Khan have both captured the publics imagination. Haye by going to heavyweight, and Khan was an olympic medalist.

Froch has moaned about **** too often. He set himself up when he was bashing Calzaghe. He didnt get the fight, and he also didnt help his popularity.

Froch obviously does crave fame and recognition, like any world class athlete.

Does not say much for you mate....other than dirrell what other froch fight has not been a war! he always gets hit, he always goes for knockout punches, yet you think he is boring! seriously mate, you watching the wrong sport! go watch wwf pal!
