Carl Froch is not an amateur.....he,s not an International level/class....he,s not European level/class........he is World level/class...............how complicated can it be. ive just never seen him fight a well known fighter and when i have watched his fights they have been terrible , i fell asleep when he fought that old man johnson i think it was , i dont follow frochs carear and i dont really know his weight division to well but if the last post was the best fighters in that division i understand why ive never seen him fight a big name fighter andre dirrel & pascal maybe but the rest nothing special all im saying is i think hes a poor fighter , and lucian bute is the smartest most intelligent fighter hes ever fought and theres no doubt in my mind bute will stop him or win points Quote Link to post Share on other sites
