My take on Carl 'The Cobra' Froch

a real old school throwback fighter who was durable, tough,also had a huge iron will to win late on in fights
the first groves stoppage (although you could argue it was a bit too early) was proven to be the correct decision judging by the second fight cos if their first bout would have carried on groves would have been body bagged. Truth is froch was coming on strong like he always does and groves was fading theres no way in hell he would have made it to the final bell but what does it matter anyway the cobra knocked him in front of 80000 people
kessler was no joke either but i dont remember any beat down happening between them? there was no shame in losing to ward cos froch had already overachieved with the tools he had i wish he was still prime and could fight golovkin

I was a huge fan of Froch, specially when Joe Calzaghe was ducking him. But lately he seems like an arrogant prick. Bad mouthing GGG? Not allright in my book.

When he was fighting and soon after his retirement the overwhelming opinion was, that this was a guy who fought murderers row, a true iron man.
He was one of those fighters who wouldn't wait for an opposing fighter to show his weaknesses - he would go looking for them, and more often than not he would find them.
Not the most skilled - not the fastest - but my god was he effective. HOF'er for me also.
He also didnt want any part of Calzaghe until Calzaghe was half way into retirement.
