Froch is gonna be a HUGE UK name now

[Cobra_]

I agree. It was a who's who of British celebrities ringsideand my Facebook timeline was full of new boxing experts. Can't remember such a fervor for a fighter in the UK since Hatton.

This is what I mean. Before the Bute fight Froch was an extremely hardcore boxing fans name. Now even the most casual of boxing fans are talking about the Froch fight.

Froch has turned into the kind of guy where you order his fight, invite some friends and have some beers. UK has been missing that kind of name since Haye retired in 2011.

Froch will be PPV only for sure now. Expect very high buyrates from now on.

He won't be bigger than Khan or Hatton.

Most casuals I know didn't give a damn about this fight for some reason.

[Bermuda]

definitely the best UK fighter out there right now...

Khan? LOL

Come back to me when Khan can sell a 20K arena out in 3 hours. Hatton I agree with but this is just the start for Froch.

Khan? i dont know about that. Hatton deffo not though

After that win he has become the UK's most popular fighter right now. Could become near Hatton level soon if he gets more wins.

Good to see him getting the respect he deserves.

He surpassed Ricky Hatton now I think.

I'm sure he can if he fought a big name

His last fight sold out the Morpoint Arena in Sheffield, 10k and that was against a unknown Diaz

Why couldn't he do 20k if he fought say Garcia, Devon or Lucas in a larger venue over here?

Be reasonable

Oooh wait you meant popular...
I thought you meant achievement wise!

I'm not sure about Amir Khan or Ricky Hatton then in that case...
Khan has his loyal idiots smoking weed thinking he is an ATG alot of people support him.
Wouldn't say he's reached Ricky Hattons popularity but he's definitely done more impressive things than both fighters.

He's already bigger than Khan.

Bet there was tons of comps too. Froch/Kessler was a legit sellout in 3 hours. Khan doesn't even have the following to sell out an event a week before his fight.
