    Well, clearly it didn't make sense to him. But maybe you know best?

      What's all this about "need". He's a prizefighter with a title. I think you'll find most boxers want to retain their title until they get to stage where their priorities shift.

        Is Dirt still in here defending Froch? Pathetic.

          The point is that Froch went against what made sense and decided to give an unknown Groves the opportunity to fight him for the title. And he should be commended for that.

          Calzaghe never afforded Froch the same chance.

          Like Dan said, how many times does he have to do it before he's given credit? DeGale? Callum Smith? Rocky Fielding?

            He's trying to but he's struggling to make a point. Poor guy. I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, but you know... I think he's a bit special.

              Froch, by his own self-proclamation, was already a superstar. Why would he need a belt? He had another belt too! He was in line for any number of big fights and he chose to face Groves.

                lol you can't win with him. He's already convinced himself he's won the argument before even posting.

                  Well done, you've befriended one of my groupies and the certified biggest spastic on the board

                    What made sense to whom? I think he took the fight that made sense to him. The fact that you don't understand may be at the root of why you're so upset.

                      Befriended? Bardock made a valid point and I agreed with it. It's weird that upsets you enough to comment on it.
