Comments Thread For: Froch Aims For Damage After Mack's Calzaghe Insult

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Carl Froch will use Yusuf Mack's barb about him being a fake Joe Calzaghe to motivate him ahead of their IBF super middleweight bout on Saturday night.

Nottingham puncher Froch has succeeded Calzaghe as Great Britain's most dominant fighter and comparisons between the two are easy as they hail from the same division.

Career timings meant they never met in the ring - something Froch wanted to happen - but he has achieved enough since to ensure he does not need the Welshman's name on his resume.

His brilliant five-round win over Lucian Bute in May allowed him to become world champion for the third time and he kicks off his defence against American Mack in Nottingham on Saturday.

Calling Froch a "fake Calzaghe" is probably the worst thing you could call him

It really is.

Surprised it's taken him this long to address it.

Sometimes it can be a great weapon to get under your appoenents skin, like calling them names.

But to me Froch really seem like the absolut worst apponent trying to insult, he wassent fires up before the kessler fight, or the ward fight because the are good guys.
But in the Bute fight he was fires up and we saw what happens when froch unleashes rage.

Mack may be pissing up the wrong tree here

When mack gets his jaw broken by a cobra uppercut, he will know his littel plan backfired horribly

[daggum]

even calling someone a first rate calzaghe is a huge insult, but a second rate? the ultimate insult.

Yes, this is right. Froch is not the sort of opponent you want to wind up before fighting him. He's like a sociopath when it comes to revenge he is calm, focused and determined until he decides it's time to unleash his rage.
