Comments Thread For: Froch Says DeGale Ahead of Golovkin in Selection Order

[aboutfkntime]

Where country are you from, SA/NZ or Oz? I'm guessing NZ since you said they have little chance of winning. I despise the ABs

Nah, we're on the same page.

Yep

But when England tour here, the English fans show up in droves.

Its unbelievable.

You guys cant beat Aussie at cricket either ..... but when the Ashes is played in Australia, the fans show up in the thousands.

When the British Lions toured here in 2005, the population in my country nearly doubled LOL

The point is, brits will stick with their guy, through thick and thin.

Pretty admirable really.

Froch is a loser

back when that Samoan poach Umugger tried to kill BOD?

I don't watch rugby anymore, only boxing now and a little bit of F1. You're spot on about Brit fans.

Here's the interview

Thanks for the link!

He says in the beginning that McCracken's dad just passed away and that he's currently out of touch. That could be one factor why Carl hasn't announced any plans yet, but overall he sounds like he's trying to protect his accomplishments and only willing to risk tarnishing his image for something that will enhance it significantly.

I have to admit neither Golovkin or DeGale would give Froch much more respect and neither would be as big as his fights with Groves, Kessler or even Bute (the fight that really opened the door for him).

Nexts months update: Marquez and Froch still thinking about fighting again.

I didnt get that at first, but yea you're right.

Umaga late-tackled the Irish captain O'Driscoll. IIRC, Umaga wasnt suspended, they called it late, not intentional..... but Tana was the All Black incumbent and O'Driscoll would be his opposite in the test matches to come..... so yep, highly suspect, Umaga was real lucky there.

Not usually a dirty player to be fair.

But I will never forget 1993, that tour was magical.

I was just a kid, but I will never forget the great Gavin Hastings who captained the side, the English backs Underwood and Carling, especially Jeremy Guscott, the ghost..... and the back-rowers big Ben Clarke, what a fkn machine he was..... and Dean Richards.

That was great, I will never forget that as long as I live.

1st test (by memory)

The ALL Blacks were down, something like 20-18, with only 2 minutes left on the clock.

The ball was in our half, the Lions were in possession, and hard on attack.

Suddenly the whistle blew.

Dean Richards was furious, remonstrating with the referee, who had pinged him for some infringement.

Grant Fox stepped up, about 2 metres our side of the half way line, just to the right.

The crowd went deathly quiet, it was unreal, never experienced anything like it.

You could have heard a pin drop.

Suddenly a loud voice from behind us screamed "miss it you Auckland git"

Funny as fcuk.

Fox nailed it, we won something like 21-20, it was real close.

Afterwards at the pub, we watched the replay.

Still have no idea why Richards was penalised, not to this day.



Have a great weekend dude.

Why did Froch vacate his IBF again? I'm confused

[SugarRaRobinson]

A bit shocked at Froch's cowardice . No real reason but fear not to accept this fight considering it would be GGG's first at 168 , which gives Froch a notable advantage . Why is Ward the only notable that would love to b.tch slap this eastern euro ?

[Pain~Lucy]

froch is retired, lets have GGG vs degale for the meantime

Do you really see DeGale taking a GGG fight? I don't.
