Comments Thread For: Froch: Facing Bernard Hopkins in Notttingham is Huge!

[bluebeam]

Yea he did. That doesn't prove Froch will fight anyone anytime. That he is fearless.

People don't remember, but Froch never made any money for most of his career. Sky never showed his fights, he fought on some PPV channel in the UK, Primetime I believe, and never had any sales. He was an absolute failure.

This is when Froch fought his tough opponents. Froch got big following the Bute win, and since then? Froch has most definitely NOT fought anyone and everyone.

In fact, Froch has very very clearly avoided and ducked many fighters. A fearsome warrior would fight GGG and Kovalev, not target freaking two bit fatso Chavez Jr., or a deadman walking like Hopkins.

Its especially hypocritical that Froch criticizes every British fighter for their choice of opponents, calling every opponent feather fisted or a bum. Now he's trying to fight Hopkins and also keep on telling us the same old BS?

Froch is popular because he's an icon to all the racist white Englishmen of shltholes like Nottingham. Thankfully, we are too smart to buy this BS about being a warrior who will fight anyone, anytime.

GGG would end this whitehype. Execute him in cold blood.

I agree ggg and kovalev would beat froch but neither guy fights at 168.

froch fought everybody at 168.

pascal,taylor,dirrell,ward,abraham,kessler,bute,jo hnson,groves.

nobody is missing from that 168 list.

The truth.

Froch fought everyone in his division.

He has nothing left to prove IMO.

I don't think Kovalev wanted to KO Hopkins.
Andre Ward (who somehow emulates Hopkins' style) set the blueprint on how to beat Froch. But B-Hop is old, doe.

Nice to agree with you for once.

I agree with everything you said to one degree or another including the sarcasm of the final sentence; I wouldn't be utterly shocked if Hopkins managed to come up with a decision win here even if he is old doe. Especially if the fight happened in other than Nottingham.
