    Is Carl Froch's Resume Underrated?

    Notable Wins


    Undefeated Andre Dirrell
    Undefeated Jean Pascal (and Current Ring LHW Champ)
    Jermain Taylor (Former Undisputed Middleweight CHamp)

    Notable Loss

    Mikkel Kessler (Controversial loss to one of the best SMW of all time)







    Is he underrated because he's a pom?

        He isn't really "Underrated" Everyone knows he is a threat to any contender.

        He is criticized for for taking to many on the chin and maybe being a bit awkward.

        But the guy is a warrior, which is what I like to see.

          Bute is the one who is underrated.

              haha, he didn't get his "ass beat"

              he did get frustrated with the running but he hardly took a whooping.

                Should have lost to Dirrell and lost to Kessler clearly but has good wins over Jermain Taylor and Jean Pascal. He is a better fighter then his haters would have you believe and not nearly as good as his ****** ass fans would tell you he is.

                  That was not a controversial loss! It was a clear win for Kessler. The only controversial thing on his resume is the Dirrell win. Kessler fight was a close, but clear, victory for Mikkel.

                  He has a couple of good wins, very good one in Pascal and Dirrell. So, he is kind of both. He's just a good, hard champ that isn't really underrated or overrated, though he can be both by different people.

                    I would never describe his loss to Kessler as controversial... Kessler won that one fair and square.

                    The only controversy was that Dirrell lost the fight with Froch.
                    He was gifted the fight with Dirrell and got lucky to keep his belt against a gassed out Taylor who had been busted up 2 fights prior.

                    To this day,Jean Pascal is probably the best clean, no divided opinions, win on his resume.

                    You can add Abraham to Froch's "notable losses" list....by KO.
