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

Well I found this picture

It seems racially motivated

I know he said he was inspired by Sugar Ray Leonard, Chris Eubank and Roy Jones Jr but I have heard him say nothing about Prince Naseem

Well I'm telling you he has. There's an interview that someone posted on here a while ago where he says Naz was one of the people that he looked up to and loved to watch. I'll try to find it. He said it a few times when he was coming up - I'd know having followed his career.

Yes you keep posting that meaningless picture to desperately try to portray Froch as a racist. Get a life. There's no proof it's even him or that the photo isn't doctored and most of all, it doesn't even have a racist word there. It could have meant anything.

Where's the racist bit? Froch is british - the 4 *'s are obviously standing for (unt. His fued with Khan goes back years - 'froch wasnt very big in the UK in the late 2000's while Khan was huge and on TV for every fight. Froch made some bitter comments towards Khan, and given the chance theyve taken shots at each other ever since

You see a clever move by Froch he has insulted people in the past but you see he has blanked out the word and made it look like a mystery this time. If he didn't try to cover the word he would have got done badly.

So you see intelligent move by Froch.

Also I ain't clutching straws he is extremely negatively biased towards Khan. He says he has an interest in watching Brits in World Title fights but then he contradicts himself by not being bothered to watch Khan.

He has always been somehow upset when Khan was a world champion

As people have explained to you, it could be for a number of reasons. The main one being that I believe he's always been jealous of how Khan was a huge star before even turning professional whilst Froch was fighting a series of tough fights for little money. I think he believes he should have been getting more credit and that Khan gets too much credit for not doing what he's done.

It's not that intelligent if someone as thick as you could pick up on it though is it?

You see It has been blanked out and why has it been blanked out because that word was meant to be racial but he was very clever here

But the things that I don't get is that he is extremely bitter to Khan he absolutely hates him

I have not seen a video and an article saying he admired Prince Naseem please show me

For Froch, this disdain for boxing hype springs from his belief that he has natural ability, unlike Frank Bruno. "He was an engineered fighter. He is a good example of somebody who trained hard and was dedicated. Then youve got people like Naseem Hamed and myself who have natural ability."

It was watching Hamed that made Froch take to boxing and move away from his infatuation with Nottingham Forest and football.

Ironically in the second article, he also mentions Haye and Hatton - saying he deserves more credit than them. So you could say he was jealous of them which you claimed he wasn't

Well he should not blame Khan it is not his fault he should have blamed Mick Hennessy or joined Frank Warren back in the day

He was never jealous of Hatton or Haye

Okay fair enough maybe you are right the other possibility is he maybe using his name to try to lie to people he is not racist. But his strange hatred for Amir Khan is what irked me in the first place.

Also when I looked on twitter many people where saying it was racist as he made a clever move blocking the words not showing his true intention and making the reader to ponder out it.

But his massive hatred for Amir Khan is very strange. He actually does not have so much hatred for Hatton and Haye, as he does for Amir.

Well maybe he's just giving an honest opinion. He rates Hatton higher than Khan - why does that have to be racism? He clearly doesn't rate Frank Bruno either who most British people love Bruno.

He turned pro because of Prince Naseem Hamed. Khan wasn't even around at that time so why would that be any reason to try to mask racism? What a ridiculous argument? Why wouldn't he also praise Khan if he wanted to hide his so called racism?

He has been getting the same credit as Amir Khan for the recent years he has been more popular then Khan.

But when Khan won the title he has said he was boring etc instead of either keeping quiet as he does not watch him.

I heard that he turned pro because of his coach
