Comments Thread For: Carl Froch Officially Retires From Boxing, Joins Sky Sports

[COVID-19]

Froch has given me two of my all time favourite moments in boxing:

No.1:

People forget how dangerous this fight was considered at the time. After picking up the vacant strap vs. Pascal he goes straight into another tough fight in his opponents backyard no less. The way the fight went was perfect, losing on all cards, being KD'd only to dig deep and Knock him out with 14 seconds left. If any fighters want to take note on how to finish an opponent, take a look at this fight.



I remember full on shouting at my computer screen at the end of this. Probably woke everyone in the house up.

No.2:

It has to be. That time Froch KO'd George Groves in front of 80,000 people at Wembley. I hate ugly kid with a passion so to see him smashed to bits on the floor was huge for me. The whole pub i was in went mental when that shot landed. Great moment.



Honorable mention to the Bute KO.

ATG........ Froch was an exciting fighter.

Great to see such an overrated bum retire from the sport.

Thank you Froch for all the entertaining fights and the heart you showed. You were always a must see fighter and I hope you enjoy your new career.

Bute replaces Groves if I'm limiting this to 2, which is crazy hard with Froch's career. That was a crucial moment for him, and he absolutely slaughtered that dude. Such a great moment.

Good fighter but I don't like him as an analyst.

[RlCKY]

Carl is one of the last of a dying breed...anyone, anywhere, anytime. Glad to be able to say that I got to see him fight.

Thanks for your contribution to the thread.

Interesting that this 'overrated bum', as you call him, has one of the best resumes at 168.

You'll be missed, Champ.

Man you will be missed you gave us a bunch of great figths back to back in a era where being a coward and cherry picking is cool and the thing to do but you dared to be great and went for it time after time.. Nothing but respect for The Cobra enjoy your retirement Champ.
