    Yeah, I've re-thought my position on Froch getting into the HOF. The football fan in me says "not even close." Because actually have to be a great player to go to Canton. Boxing is drastically different. So what the hell. If Arturo Gatti and Rocky Balboa made it into the boxing HOF. Froch may be a unanimous first ballot inductee.
    I don't think Froch isn't worthy of having had a HOF career. Especially if he notched a big win. I am not saying he's first or second ballot. But it wouldn't be a travesty if he didn't make it.

    However I think he needs a win vs the likes of Ward, top LHW Champion(s) or a continued run as champion vs Champions not named Ward. It's like he is right at the cusp.

      Froch isn't very good. If the boxing HOF wasn't a complete joke, this wouldn't even be up for debate.

        40,000 plus tickets sold in this year alone don't really support that notion.

            Why is there no noise for Froch V Bika to unify? It would be a war for the ages!!

              This, I don't even know anyone who likes him, the papers and Sky make out he has a massive following, that's a load of nonsense.

                I don't remember him coming out and saying he'd rematch Dirrell or Johnson in his close matches..
                Since when was Johnson a close match???????
