Comments Thread For: Froch To Hopkins: You Want Me? Only at a Catch-Weight!

[techliam]

so Froch isn't a LHW I get that, but if he's fighting at a CW, it would likely be 170, which is light heavyweight

catchweight silliness

Froch isn't a 175lb fighter. 168.1 is light heavyweight too

[techliam]

Froch is a cowardly *****.

Hopkins is a 48 year old former middleweight.

Froch is younger and naturally bigger. Stop being a ****ing baby and make the fight.

Lol this logic is hilarious. Sure it looks fine on the outside, but really your logic only serves as the arguments downfall. You mention how Hopkins started off smaller and how Froch is naturally bigger. So then, Hopkins could easily go down if he's the smaller guy. If he's not the smaller guy, most of your post doesn't make any sense

Hopkins better consider it, otherwise he'll be left fighting the Murat's of the world on ESPN since he's too scared of Andre Ward who IMO he beats.

Hopkins is naturally smaller, ******. Hes 48 years old. You tell me if you weigh the same when youre 25 vs 48 years old. He intentionally put on muscle to move up to 175. Froch is naturally larger. He is a complete ***** ***git who is afraid of a smaller 48 year old man. Yeah hopkins could go down, at the expense of his health, which is what froch wants, he wants additional advantage over a ****ing 48 year old.

B-Hop interview on Froch etc (not very interesting really)

[anti-Mismatch]

Carl Froch
Andre Ward
Manny pacquiao are all allowed to make opponents come down in weight but Mayweather's not allowed?

Wow. all of you people sounds like Froch is a total coward. How about your idol Bernard Flopkins challenging smaller guys at 160 and 168?? Flopkins should fight guys his size not smaller than his. Then he will brag again about his damn age.

Froch said he spars with Tony Bellew regularly so he knows what a Light-heavy opponent feels like and he's not keen to move up.

-----------------------

Can you provide a source?

I know that he's sparred a lot with Bellew.

ot doubting you mate, just interested to see what he's said about what it's like sparring a LH

Who is desperate to see this fight?
Hopkins holding and spoiling for 12 rounds.
There had better be a good undercard.

Believe me - the British public will come out in huge numbers for a legend Hopkins, something that the American's can't seem to understand but if you live or have lived in the UK you'd know the passion for boxing in UK and how much they love to see the biggest names.

I reckon there be as many at a Froch Hopkins weigh-in as some World Title fights. You have to experience it to understand.

How are you going to ask an old man for a concessions like that lol, B-Hop just ain't any old man but still that is a terrible look for someone who is suppose to be a guy who will take on all challenges.

I don't care if Froch fight B-Hop or not but if that fight is going to happen I want to see Froch fight B-Hop at his best. to see if he can actually pass that test. Who cares if he beats old B-Hop at a fraction of old B-Hop's best~
