Comments Thread For: Hopkins vs. Froch: A Can’t-Miss Classic For 2013

[Daddy T]

I don't see why this fight is exciting and its certainly lose lose for froch ... most likely scenario is he wins an ugly decision over an old man ... next most likely he loses an ugly decision to an old man ... neither of them do froch any favors ... hell even if he knocks hopkins out ... he just knocked out a 50 year old man wow he's sure to get koudos for that

Anyway he has to get past kessler first which is certainly not a given

Froch aint getting past Kessler....cant wait for all the "he just had a son" excuses....

the statement 'A can't-miss fight' and hopkins should never be in the same sentance

You sure? He might get all the kudos in the world for KOing the old geezer thats been eating up premium cable boxing slots with his "chess matches".

I don't mind Hopkins but Froch has nothing to gain from beating a nearly 50 year old fighter, If he beats him they will say you were suppose to he is past his best then if he loses to him well obviously it will pad how great Hopkins really is and the fact age is merely just a number.

Froch better get paid alot If he does go for it.

There's always a fight with Chad Dawson Hopkins could go for lol.

That's not fair he's just had a son, he's had alot on his mind and wasn't able to put it all into his training camp...
This fight wasn't an accurate representation of what Carl Froch is all about.

There I'll keep that on copy and paste for you.

alot of pawing jabs being thrown at B.Hop in here....but alles klar... I can dig it though...nobody in their right mind thinks Froch can beat B.Hop so just blow it off as a lose-lose for Froch and discredit B.Hop's ability to turn a "turned up" fighter all the way down and put his ass on mute....Froch is baby food for B.Hop and everybody knows it but FEW will come out and admit it

when dudes post their P4P lists...Froch's name pops up...when dudes name the most respected fighters in the game today...Froch's name pops up....when you talk about resumes and tough fights...Froch's name pops up...but that just shows you how good B.Hop is at damn near 50 when a fighter such as Froch would be seen as a CHERRY PICK by some

Daughter fwiw.

[Mr. Philadel]

coming down in weight and willing to go to YOUR hometown in Europe means the oldman KNOWS he can beat you....FACT!!!!!

I'll admit it, I think B-Hop probably wins. It's not really an exciting fight though. I'd rather see Froch v Stieglitz.
