If he rematches anyone it should be Ward. Without his reaction to that loss he might still be the fan-favourite he was for years prior, instead of a respected ex-fighter who's been taking it out on his red-headed stepchild since.

Absolutely no shame in that loss, just a bad reaction to it. For someone so admired for his bravery it was a letdown, 'cause no-one criticised his performance.

I think he’s just one of the world’s most sarcastic deadpan men, once you realise he’s winding everyone up it gets a lot funnier.

Groves and DeGale probs both physically finished now, and funnily enough think old Carl could beat either. He should fight Ward.

Froch won't come back. And he was one of our very best fighters.

I'm not sure he takes himself as seriously as some think. He seems like a good bloke to me.

Hunter is talking nonsense in that vid. Says that ward could step into any U.K. city and people would know who he is :lol:
Also downplaying froch’s drawing power.

As much as froch seems bitter about ward, team ward seem to be just as bitter about froch’s bigger drawing power.

Fair is fair. Froch was one of the main players in reigniting British Boxing. There was no PR and bullshit with his fights. He was often fighting the best in meaningful fights and the British public caught onto this.

Yes, I remember Primetime and FrochTaylor.com with great fondness.
