    Why do some people still discredit Froch?

    I am from England and it is ****** that this guy doesn't get no coverage. David Haye doesn't fight the best, yet he is treated like a god. I like Amir Khan and he has great potential, but he is still young and has a lot to prove. Khan is heading HBO cards for god sake. Then we have Froch, he doesn't get that much media attention, yet he brings an excitement to every fight, fights the best and fights exciting.

    People always underrate Froch's skills too. Just because he is awkward doesn't mean he can't box. We saw this last night, he fought a picture perfect fight against Abraham.

    Why do people still discredit him?

    David Haye is a chump, I don't know why Froch doesn't. Froch comes off as a ****, but so does Haye and Froch is clearly fighting the better fighters as of recently.

      Actually he won quite a few over today. He did a great job. I have been on his bandwagon for a while now. He is on tough guy, fights wars and doesn't duck. What is not to like?

        It is all down to management. If Froch was with Frank Warren who is a scumbag he would be heading bills and would be very famous. Mick Hennesey does not have a lot of clout so Froch is not getting the attention he deserves. There is a lot of media politics in the sport,it is not a metitocricy and Froch gets a raw deal.

          Because it's boxingscene, that's what happens.

          You're either the GOAT, or a hype job.

              Alot of people gave him no chance what-so-ever, some give him credit ... some say he would get his ass beat by Ward (Ye the hometown headbutter who has had an easy ride through the tournement)

              I would have Froch at #3 for SMW, until Ward has been destroyed.

                Hey. David Haye might be fooling some of the people but not all. Froch isn't playing around in boxing, he's here to fight the best, and put on a show for the fans. Froch is the real deal but Haye? He hasn't proved us **** yet.
