Comments Thread For: Froch: Hearn Meeting With Haymon For Chavez Fight

[alexguiness]

Chavez and Froch are both bums. GGG would end them both on the same night.

I especially hate Froch, that ugly white supremacist, PED fiend. Englishmen are just disgusting.

Could you qualify that part of your post for me?

Just some evidence will suffice.

Thanks Brother.

Yeah the key phrase being "recent years". Amir Khan was a millionaire when he turned pro. Froch was fighting a list of world class fighters back-to-back and not making anywhere near what Khan was making. He was also fighting on obscure networks like Primetime. The Jermain Taylor fight wasn't even broadcast live on UK TV.

He doesn't like Khan's style of fighting I don't think. You don't have to like it. Froch isn't a fan of Muhammad Ali either. He has his own tastes.

Is it right for Froch to be bitter about Khan's success? Probably not, it isn't Khan's fault he was given a lot of opportunities. He won a Olympic medal so he probably deserved it. Is it racism? No.



I haven't heard him defend Peterson's cheating. Roy Jones was another of Froch's heroes and he has come out and questioned his whole career over the steroid issue.

Well thats your opinion and you have presented wonderful facts but racism maybe a possible theory as he was not bitterly jealous of Hatton or Haye's success he is way to bitter to Amir Khan and that heavily irks me.

With the Peterson thing he seems to forget he is a cheat

Most likely an angry Khan fan.

“I haven’t had the recognition I deserve,” he says. “You can go back to anybody’s career — Ricky Hatton, Joe Calzaghe, David Haye, Amir Khan, Chris Eubank, Nigel Benn, Steve Collins, Naseem Hamed. My record is better than all of theirs.

“I’ve won against more unbeaten fighters than any of them, had more exciting fights. It’s not like I have one hard fight, then a couple of easy fights and then another hard fight. Since I won the WBC world title against Jean Pascal in 2008, every single fight has been against a top-level fighter.”




And can you please qualify these statements about Peterson? When has he ever said Peterson wasn't a cheat?

[MrRolltide91]

Hope they get it done.

I remember I used to hate Carl Froch at the beginning of the super six tournament. I hated him when he kept calling out Joe. I hated him when he got the nod over my boy Direll. But somewhere between then and now he's won me over and become one of my favorite fighters. He's kind of an a---hole but he is a constant professional who represents the sport very well.

We will see

He compares Amir Khan's career to Audley Harrison. He takes a huge interest in both Hatton's and Haye's fights. He even was ringside for Haye v Kiltshcko. He has never been ringside or even watched Amir Khan's fights it shows his pure hatred for Amir Khan.

He keeps on acknowledging Khan lost to Peterson but he can't discredit that Peterson was a cheat who had a crooked referee.

Or maybe that's because he and David Haye are friends. They boxed together at the same tournaments growing up.

Why is not watching Khan fights mean "pure hatred"? Wow you are a very sensitive little man. People don't have to watch Khan fight.

Lots of people say Khan lost to Peterson. That's whats in the record books. Froch might not know the full story behind it. He doesn't follow boxing.

There's no point in trying to reason with you cos you've made your simple mind up that Froch is racist

Well Amir Khan was trying to be friendly with Carl Froch. He went ringside to many of his fights to support can't Froch do that.

Well as a british fighter you should give Khan support but he didn't he apparently claims to watch Brtish fighter in world title fights but does not watch Khan the sends a signal that he is a bitter racist.

Well I found this picture

It seems racially motivated

Who knows what he said but the term "horrible" tends to come before "cunt" when insulting someone.

From what I read Khan and Froch were the only two world champs in 2009, Khan was hyped and praised whereas Froch struggled to get attention. I guess he saw him as a rival.
