    As people already mention Froch took the most dangerous road ever since he's breakthrough fight against Taylor.

    A true warrior.

          But let's not mention that. Doesn't fit your narrative.

            Why would I ask him such a beta question and why would I even give a flying donkey f#ck about what he thought? i answered the op's question with a legitimate response, where's yours? Defending a man when he isn't even being attacked is suspect.

              Check out Timothy Bradley Resume

              Going all the way back to 2007, other than a Old Casamayor as his Warm Up for his first fight with Top Rank, Bradley has fought ONLY Champions and Top Contenders/Challengers in his Division

                  Fighters follow this train to make easy green between huge fights.

                  Name some modern examples where a fighter took two big fights in a row.
                  It's odd you forget to mention Manny's fights with Oscar and Hatton before Cotto. Those are three huge fights in a row. It's the reason why Manny exploded into superstardom.

                    Yes, he took bigger risks before he became a star.

                    Oscar and Hatton were enough to launch him into stardom. His ambition waned following the Cotto fight.

                    Oscar-Hatton-Cotto was a good run. 3 big fights consecutively
