      Froch wants to be the no1 brit fighter so of course he would say khan lost.
      But Froch is the only one who thinks Peter won. But on the same token, Khan was pushed all the way and it was a close fight, so it is a wake up call, even if Khan had of got the decision.

        But khan does need to sort a few things out, and i dont know if he can in a short space of time. But depending on who he fights, will determine what he needs to work on.
        when you lose to peterson or struggle against him, no one wants to see you fight floyd mayweather. Well no one except pac fans who suddenly (as of Nov 4th) don't want manny to fight floyd.

            I agree with everything Froch said apart from Khan actually losing the fight, which I felt he clearly won (albeit very close). Khan needs to slow it down and learn his craft, I don't think the Peterson rematch is a problem either, it is this level he needs to build from. Build up to a Bradley, Or a big fight at 147, like he was building towards Mayweather. He can still be a p4p type fighter, but he needs to learn how to fight in the medium range, not necessarily up close like everyone is saying. He needs to be able to land and evade punches when his opponent is in punching range by bobbing slipping, and countering so he doesn't have to use his legs so much, Bradley actually eluded to this after the fight.

            He is not as far away as people think, he could do with learning a few little pet moves defensively to nullify opponents when they bring pressure, if he adds these improvements to his current repertoire he will be fine.

                  That's some of the most measured, sensible comments to ever come out of Carl Froch's mouth.

                    I wouldn't say Bradley won every round, I gave Peterson the 3rd if I remember correctly. Still, Froch is on point with those comments.
                    And Froch lost to the guy who there or there about's lost every round against Andre Ward.

                    2 points;

                    Triangle Theories mean nothing.

                    And Froch should just shut the **** up once in a while.

                      This, and unfortunately I sense we might be seeing froch come out with some excuses this weekend.
