Anyone who believes anything Carl Froch says is an idiot. And even if it's true it was a ***ing sparring match 7 years ago who gives a ***.Comment

I'm a Brook's fan... I also liked Froch -- because he was a straightforward fighter. But Carl was quite slow and limited in skills -- I remember Ward beating him with practically no healthy hands.Comment

You should never get too excited about sparring "wins". There are too many unknown dynamics at play, shape of fighters, what fighters are or aren't working on at that time, mental sharpness, not scaring away sparring partners, not hurting sparring partners, last minute sparring partner changes/availability, where each guy is in their current training camp if they even are in training camp & etc & so on.
In a real fight we got two guys we know have maximized all aspects of their life to come into a scheduled fight vs a specific guy to take that opponent as close to death as is legally possible to take them without it being considered a crime or a murder if worst comes to worst.Comment

I have seen Brook fight many times and I will let my own eyes tell me how good he is. I am not going to start thinking he is better than the boxer I have seen fight so many times because Froch says he is. Brook is a good fighter and he might fight better than ever if he is much stronger and healthier at a heavier weight. I believe Brook will lose every round until he gets KOed in 6 rounds or less. Brook is 30 years old and has been a pro boxer for many years. If he is this great boxer Froch is claiming he is then we would all already know it by now and wouldn't need Froch to tell us how great he is. He won a close split decision over Porter. That's good but no better than Thurman winning a ud over Porter. Porter was able to hit Brook often and Porter is no GGG.Comment
