AA hasn't done **** above 60. Pascal and Bute were good wins. But neither of those will exactly go down as great fighters.

    BTW, I didn't call him a bum. But he's probably the most overrated fighter in boxing.
    my bad homie, i thought you were the same dude who called him a bum. yeah froch aint no ATG, but to me he's a hall of famer.

      basically he's fought everyone at 168.
      BUT, if he doesn't give Groves a rematch - it's a straight up duck job. no doubt
      Froch gets way too much credit for "taking on all comers." He participated in a tournament. He had no choice. He gets props from me for the Bute fight, but that's about it. His true colors have shown themselves since. He fought the Kessler rematch, which was bull****. And after that fight, he showed what he was all about. He wanted a third Kessler fight over a Ward rematch. He refused to entertain going up to 75. He's a clown.

        Like I told someone last week. The football fan in me says no way is Froch a HOF'r. But the boxing HOF is basically a joke. So if Arturo Gatti and Rocky Balboa are HOF'rs, they might as well put Froch in too. But in my mind, he'll never be a great fighter. And I don't think I'm in the minority on that.

          being harsh on froch,, dont forget he fought and beat undefeated pascal and jermain taylor come from behind victory, plus he did fight groves when he didnt have to,,

          People can whine all they want to about the stoppage but the facts are that froch has taken every fight that was available, and its a shame if he tarnishes his legacy by not rematching groves,,,

          froch in no ATG but he is a lock for the HOF, and rightfully so

            If Pascal and a shot JT are his signature wins, I think my point has been proven.

              1. Groves was winning that fight handily.
              2. Froch may very well have KO'd him, Groves was being careless at times and Froch looked better as the fight went on IMO.
              3. The ref definitely decided the outcome prematurely, horrible stoppage.
              4. Froch should be ashamed not to give the kid a rematch, if not to give a better showing for himself.
              5. I hate to use the D word but it could be used in this instance.
              6. Ward makes him look like an amateur next time.
              7. I'm drunk at 4:41 EST.

                  It's amazing how some people can't see this, it's starin them in the face!! His only win in the super six should've been Johnson and Abraham. And come out with 3 losses.
