    Some skills? Yeah he does have some. "Deserves" a fight against Ward as people were saying? Hell no. And Froch showed why.

        I didn't think so. But he was more aggressive than usual.

          He will go back to being anoymous fighting ppl ranked 150 in montreal

            Probably, compared to how slow he was against Ward.

            Missed the fight too, damn

              Not really a fan? I hate the guy. That's slowly becoming "Hated".

              It's a classic case of "Remember that guy you used to hate but then became a fan of?"

              Hard to dislike the guy. He's so limited in the ring, he does almost everything wrong, he's clumsy, slow, not very talented. But he pulls it out.

              Picked him to lose to Taylor, Dirrell, Abraham, Kessler, Ward, Bute and he wins most of them.

              Picked guys like Taylor, Abraham and Bute to absolutely dominate him. Then he knocks out 2 of them and shuts out the other.

              Carl Froch is Boxing's biggest enigma.

              No matter what, you've got to respect him. You have no choice.

                  Froch has fought the best possible opponents out there time after time, can only respect him for that, doing it outside his backyard most of the time too. I was happy to see him win, thought he deserved a good win like that. A Kessler rematch would be good now.

                  Can't knock him for his drive and wanting to face the best out there, wanting to be the very best he can be.

                    I thought you hated him, but I didn't want to say so without being sure.

                    People love to talk about how "old school" other boxers are, and Froch is the only one in the sport right now that is truly old school.

                      Maybe.

                      He's fought some really good fighters but the value of his wins are hard to judge and he lost against the two proven bonafide 168lbs fighters.

                      But he's the man for sure.
                      As it stands right now he probably has the best resume of all time at 168.

                      Ward will most likely overtake him but for now, it has to be Froch.

                      Pascal, Taylor, Dirrell, Abraham, Johnson, Bute.

                      Taylor, Abraham and Bute all favourite's to beat him.

                      Got to be a HOF place for him after tonight.
