Anyone read this.

I was starting to appreciate Froch's boxing a bit more, but once again his ego puts me off liking him. How can he say what he has said with only 29 fights and when he has lost to Kessler, who Calzaghe beat.

I hope he gets another Kessler fight and Kessler shows him what a really good boxer looks like.

I don't think he is better than Calzaghe but if he can beat Kessler and then maybe Ward I would say he is. At the moment he is just behind. He is a great warrior

If he can beat Ward and Kessler then yes, but both of them have already outclassed him and I see no reason why Froch could reverse either results. A good boxer and worthy of world titles, but he has not yet proved himself worthy of the group he puts himself into.

I don't think Kessler outclassed him - it was a close decision, and one I'd back Froch to reverse in any rematch.

Ward is a cut above though, the number 3 p4p for me in the world and I don't see any SMW beating him at the moment.

Froch's opponents in his last 8 fights have been nothing short of incredible - his resume reads of someone who shirks no one and he deserves plaudits for that.

In hindsight after the Froch v Bute fight we probably majorly overrated Bute. Sure he was champion but he had never fought anyone from the Super Six tournament and in fact had fought some very poor fighters who made him look better than he is. He will have to improve greatly to get up to the level of the Froch, Ward, Abraham, Kessler's of this world

It was hard to judge based on who he had faced, but considering his attributes and the fact he had knocked off Johnson more handily than Froch could, many people believed he would beat Froch coming off the Ward performance.

I would say Bute is the level below Froch, Ward, Kessler, Dirrell etc, but could still come back and prove to be good enough. Needs to defend a little tighter though, that's for sure.

I think Kessler was always comfortable against Froch and the scores didn't reflect the actual fight. In fairness Froch has come on a lot, so maybe you are right about that one.

I would actually be interested to Bute against Ward as Ward is not a puncher and may be more suited to Bute's style. Ward would still win, but Bute would regain a lot of credit.

In that list of 8 fights, credit that Froch has fought the big names I agree. However, only one of them really deserves top class billing and has lived up to the hype.

Afro did you hear about the two horses that died in the big horse race? Well in your face you and Nick should be ashamed supporting brutal sports that kill animals and whats really bad is the amount of money people put on it.

Afro how would you like it if I was jumping on your back forcing you to jump over 4 foot hedges while smashing your brains with a whip and demanding you to run as fast as you can in one of the most dangerous sports ever and when you break your leg I just kill you without any care or remorse.

If he had beaten Froch then I think that would be what we would see. Who knows, if they go ahead with the rematch in Canada and he can win convincingly maybe it can still happen.

Ward would do to Bute as he did to Froch though I imagine. Suffocate him and take it on points. He frustrated Froch so badly that I can't believe he'd want to chase a rematch other than for money! I don't see him beating him at all, and I think maybe a rematch with Kessler and then a step up to LHW is the best move for him.
