    His skills are underrated. Only master boxers like Ward can defeat him.

      call me crazy but froch is far more skilled and athletic than manny, floyd and ward.

      and his defense is vastly underrated. quite possibly one of the greatest defensive fighters of this generation.

        People mistake his speed with his skill. Yes he is a slow man, but he can box and further than that he showed he is very good at keeping the opponent on a good distance, for his long reach to hit it's home. The distance also makes it harder for his opponents to set up a right hand with a jab. His timing is akward too.

            Of course he has skills and luck is just superstitious garbage. He is not a master boxer and his toughness, gameness, stamina, punching power and good chin are all part of his skills. He has a good jab and he is a good body puncher and he trains very hard. The KO punch he hit Groves with was a perfectly thrown, well timed punch and there was nothing lucky about it.

              Well he is more successful than his peers like Groves and Degale, so what does that make them just poseurs all show, no go.?

              If your losing to Froch like Groves is doing, you obviously aren't doing some things as good as Froch, and you aren't a world champion and that's how you gauge, anything else is just all talk and posing and posturing.

                you say of course, but ive been berating all these years for hyping froch, and now people are saying "of course he has skills"

                Its had to convert people the hard way...

                  He is just not a good fighter, I really can't believe people see him as an elite guy.

                    I didn't want to give my opinion because the answers are badly put.

                    But I would probably simply answer "No".

                      Not a man of pure boxing skills in the sense of the word, but still the main man at 168, great resume, great career. Froch is a tough as hell, iron chinned, hard punching, durable bad motherfucker. A real WARRIOR.
