    I disagree, Froch hasn't fought an elite fighter.

      I have to agree with the article. Froch was losing to Taylor, a career middleweight until the knockout came. He lost against Dirrell but got a lucky decision. Lost a close fight to a poor version of Kessler. He looked very good against King Arthur but he's also a career middleweight. He looked good against Glen Johnson but he hadn't fought at that weight in a very long time. I actually want Froch to win against Ward but I don't think he will (I think Ward makes him look silly) and I'm willing to put some points on that if anyone is interested. When he loses the Ward fight it will be the third fight he has lost against fighters who are his natural size. I'm including the dirrell fight as a loss.

      For anyone who will feel the need to blast me for my opinion feel free to put your points were your mouths are instead.

        Frochwas going in the al round against taylor on a split decision, even with the non kncokout he won that round 10-7, asnd on points. Plus the showtime pundits had it a split/draw going into the final round. So already your a ****.

        As for the dirrell fight, froch won by a mile. Dirrells face was bloddied, boxrec punch stats showed froch won, All the top pundits like dan rafael, manny stewart, allan green, graham houston and buncey all had froch winning.

        In fact swap the judges with the ring side press row and froch wins by unanimous.

        Finally, dirrells best round was round 10, which he rightly got a point deducted, for excessive holding, illegal ducking, and falling over everytime froch was going to knock him out, so his best round was a 10-10. Sums it up for me.

        Stop hating on froch because of his ethnicity...

          People complain about ELITE fighters who duck each other.....non-elite fighters: Who gives a ****?

              If Froch is as bad as some you make out, then if Ward was to beat him - he shouldn't get praised right? He wouldn't deserve a p4p ranking for beating an overrated Brit right?

              WRONG.

              Froch and Ward are the 2 best at 168. Whoever wins has rightfully earned their position as the best at SMW. Best of luck to both men. I just hope for a fair, clean fight.



              Most people on these boards are fans of BOXERS, rather then fans of BOXING. smh

                If Froch is overrated, then what is Calzaghe?

                    No need for a rebuttle, your post proved you to be a fanboy and everyone knows its a waste of time to argue with a fanboy. We can continue the conversation about the object of your pre pubescent affections when Ward beats his a$$ but not before that because to be honest, you are boring me.

                      Carl Froch and Ward r both basically knocking on Calzaghe's door as best ever in the division. After their fight, the winner will be virtually tied with him, and anything he accomplishes afterward will easily gain him a superior legacy. Tying up loose ends at Super Middleweight, then moving up to 175. Easily superior...

                      And I say this knowing full well that Calzaghe would without a doubt beat both of them, and everyone else in the super 6, or at 175...
