What's the beef with Amir Khan and Carl Froch?

[-Lowkey-]

Froch said something about Khans glass chin after he got knocked out against Prescott, Khan took it funny held a grudge against Froch for it.

When Froch lost to Kessler Khan came out with this ridiculous statement.

“I think he [Froch] should hang up his gloves and work for me. I’ll get him a job with Khan Promotions to put up posters. Froch got his a—whooped against a fighter who*Joe Calzaghe*beat easily. Froch always had a lot to say and talked trash about fighters, including me. What goes around comes around.”

An unoriginal classless comment, like losing by first round knock out to an unknown in your back yard is equal to losing a close decision to a solid champion in there back yard.

Froch does nothing but tell it like it is.

When it comes to Khan, that truth is simply something Khan fans dont want to hear and in turn it comes across as 'hating' as they put it. It's not hating, it's simply telling it for what it is.

The difference between the two is that Froch is intelligent and articulate which allows him to speak on a situation and do it well. Khan is the opposite, inarticulate and quite frankly, an idiot.

Froch shagged Khan's mum.

What's the beef with Amir Khan and Carl Froch?
Any one know how it started and over what?
I know that Hatton and Haye all support Khan.
I think they both support Haye as well.


Britts are suppose to be stay together..maybe Khan tried to hit on his fiance? hah

I don't think Froch buys intp the line

Britts are suppose to be stay together..maybe Khan tried to hit on his fiance? hah

nor should he at the expense of being honest. Froch calls it as it is and if that does not fit in with Khan's rose tinted view of the world then it is tough *******. Khan makes so many excuses that if Froch backed him up he would not have any credability.

Quite simply, Froch is just a jealous bitter man.

And he always has been. Not just with Khan.

It started off with Calzaghe first. He practically got on his knees and opened his mouth begging for a fight with Calzaghe but at the time it was just not worth if for Calzaghe, as even though Froch must have been around 30, barely anyone knew who he was.

Then he moved onto Khan when Calzaghe retired. After Breidis KO'd Khan, Froch kicked him whilst he was down saying stuff like Khan will never be a world level fighter or something like that and saying **** about his chin.

He's also thrown a few digs at David Haye in the past.

All in all he's just a jealous man, as still he's not a household name in the UK whilst Khan and Haye are.

Whilst some of you may say rightly so, i agree he should be a household name but why is he taking it out on his fellow brit fighters?

How about taking it out on whoever the **** was promoting him before Eddie Hearn? As whoever it was they did a god awful job.

I can kind of understand where he is coming from. But...... He should have got with a decent promoter at first. I think he was with Hennesey who is terrible!!!!!!!!!!!

YOu cant really blame Khan for taking all the ££ he can if being offered. But on the other hand Froch as a fighter still deserves it way way more! All in all Froch is still a multi Millionaire so will not go short for the rest of his life.

Plenty of myths here as well, Khan has no real fanbase in the UK or the USA thats why he doesnt fight here much anymore and in the States they have to give tickets to his fights away for free just to fill the arena to make the TV coverage look better. The majority of people i know dislike him and want to see him KOed everytime he gets in the ring. Froch on the other hand has been a slow burner with Boxing fans but now due to him constantly fighting the best and his never give up style he has gradually built up a big following on both sides of the pond. I bet if a poll was done who you would prefer to watch fight live Froch or Khan the Cobra would come out overwhelming winner.

Khan got famous too quick, when his personality was still developing (18 year olds are hardly full formed human beings). People loved khan when he first started, and he seemed a likeable gung ho lad back in the day, a real go getter of sport. He won the British personality award back then, and even the Labour party paraded him as a shining example of their 'immigration policy' (lol, since he is by birth English). Something changed, he got famous too early and it must have went to his head - he occasionally started saying things and doing things that seemed too ego based, which got more frequent. Albeit he was backing it up with acheivements light years ahead of any british boxer aged under 25. Dangerous driving didnt help his case, and hes now branded, a little unfairly, but with some justification, an example impetuous egotistic, error strewn youth. Add to that, the change in the heavily populated South-east of Britain away from supporting more open immigration policies,and suddenly being classed as an outstanding foreigner (again, LOL) isnt such a hip thing.

Froch was largely unknown outside Nottingham for a long long time. World wide fame, and I suspect even the desire to perform on the world stage, came very late for him. Its all come late enough for his character to adapt to, so fame wont hardly affect him negatively. Hes matured, but Khan was still maturing when the fame hit him.

Froch shagged Khan's mum.

woah. if they didnt use protection then surely there is a future for british boxing. great speed AND iron chin, thats one bairn you wont slap in a hurry.

What's his beef? The same beef you guys have. Racism and jealousy. Nothing complicated about it. Only difference is you're all a bunch of fat losers.

Yup, a brown kid from the UK is far bigger than Froch. Yup, he's made tens of millions of pounds very quickly. It's just too much for the racists to handle.

Good to see you're red already.
