Carl Froch - Too big and too strong for GGG

[SugarRayCurtain]

who has Froch fought who was more accurate and hit as hard as GGG though?
Jermain and Groves dropped him, hes got a good chin but he pretends he never gets hurt
his ability to walk through punches and land his own are unmatched though

[LacedUp]

And he's still practically an unknown entity outside of the UK. You can't brush off his ducking of GGG to some star power discussion.

That's simply not true and completely ******ed. If anything, he's just as well known in the US as GGG is after fighting Ward, Taylor, Dirrell, Johnson etc.

He must also be pretty well known in Canada after destroying their hype job. And I know he's known around Europe after fighting Kessler twice, Abraham etc.

Even his fights with George Groves were shown live on HBO.

There's no discussion because Froch is a bigger name everywhere. That's just a fact.

I can only imagine what DeGale and/or Dirrell would do to Murray. It would be embarrassing.

It would indeed. Martin freaking Murray. Looooool again.

Nobody knows who Froch is outside of the UK. What is Froch's best win? He lost to the better version of Kessler.

He's probably more well known than GGG in the states, not to mention the rest of Europe. Yet another L.

So you're telling us that GGG doesnt fight tough competition and in the same sentence you congratulate the same tough competition for not fighting him?

Interesting.

Where is the congratulation in my post? Could you kindly point it out. All I did was state facts. Not my fault your hero has only fought bums throughout his career.

And GGG has faced who exactly? He's ko'd a bunch of stumblebums. Truth is we don't know how his power will fare against elite opposition.

Of course he's more popular everywhere. It's only logical.

That's not a fact lol. Groves 1 was on Wealth TV. The Groves 2 megafight was easily outperformed by GGG Murray in the ratings. Frochs US fights got weak ratings, and hes nowhere near the live draw in the US. GGG can sell 10k on either coast, Froch probably couldn't do a quarter that

no hes not, or at least he might be known but might not be popular. I dont think I could ever see him selling 12,000 in california by himself.

False. Froch isn't more popular in the US than GGG just because you want him to be. Nobody knows who Ward, Dirrell, and Johnson are. Taylor didn't even have a huge following, although it was bigger than that group.

I can't speak on Canada but I doubt it really works like that. Just because you fight people from different countries doesn't make you popular by default. Is GGG huge in Japan because he destroyed Ishida?

Nobody knows Froch in the states. GGG probably has more Mexican fans than Froch has US fans in total.

Froch keep ducking GGG or fight him and get pulverized. Tough spot to be in.

Well, first off GGG is a HBO fighter and they hype him to high heaven. Rightly so.

Second off, Froch vs Groves II did 700k average on an afternoon show. GGG vs Murray did 862k

Froch vs Kessler also did 1.1 million over two airings.

Hardly a massive difference.

I said well known, not popular.

I said just as well known not popular.

Eh, Ward does better ratings on HBO than GGG? Jesus you're an idiot.

No he doesn't. Nice to see you're part of the emotional UK group.

And GGG Murray got 1.4m with the reairing. Easily more than the much bigger Froch stadium fight. Thing is, Frochs prior US bouts were on Showtime, doing weak numbers and giving him little exposure
