    I always remember froch vs pascal live on free tv .. I had non boxing fans phoning me up and mesaging me saying wtf!!! An absolute war, and a thriller to watch!!

    I dont believe that anybody who understands boxing would not give the cobra maximum respect already, when this man hangs em up his resume will say it all!!

      Froch is the ONLY good fighter you have right now that deserves respect.
      Come on dude, the only good fighter that deserves respect????

      Boxing is making a revival in this country unlike in your own country.....don't be a stereotypical yank and come out with that ****, it's ****ing boring and it makes you ******.

        Okay... Honestly - I like Froch very much, he is actually becoming a favourite of mine - but did he pay Jake Donovan to write this???
        Is he not a Top 3 super middleweight? Does he not remain underrated?

        Please let me know where I overstepped.

          Noted and corrected, thanks for pointing it out and my apologies for the brain fart.

          BTW you have one of the all-time best user names EVER!

            carl froch is cool fighter however the fight with dirrell wasn't easy like he says, i don't know if he could beat ward but if does then he should be in the top 10 p4p list.

              I remember after watching his fight with Pascal and thinking 'this guy won't last long'. He had this awkward style and took too many punches.

              I could never have dreamed he would be where he is now, being considered one of the top 3 in the world at 168. Just goes to show how far guts, determination, an iron chin and dynamite in both hands can take you in boxing.

              I am a huge Carl Froch fan. He is one of my favourite active boxers today.

              WAR COBRA!!!

                Froch has earned his respect.

                But it is a complete lie that he made easy work of Andre Dirrell. He needs to stop saying that, constantly repeating a falsehood won't make it true.

                  It wasn't an easy fight but it was obvious that Dirrell did not want to fight. He kept running, and now he seems scared to return.

                    Yes he is, yes he does.

                    Great article.

                      Froch's quality of opposition stands among the very best in the sport since he rallied from behind to finish Taylor and win the wbc belt. Against Kessler he fought a great fight and got jobbed by the judges and boxing media. I had him over Kessler by a 117-111 tally. He will likely outwork Glen Johnson down the stretch but I don't believe Froch will get the respect he deserves without a win over Ward or Bute.
