I am not a fan of Carl Froch but the website is brilliant.

Cheers Terry & Wild,

It's about time that the boxing community's website's were dragged kicking and screaming into the modern world.

I have tried to put a clip of each of Froch's fights next to the fight result - i still have more to do, but i think it's an idea that should be adopted by others.

There are some great little fights that happen early on in a lot of British fighter's careers that are remarkable but many of the rest of the world never get the opportunity to see them.

Hatton v Thaxton is a great example of blood & guts, but hardly any american or european fan has witnessed it.

Plus any amateur fights of note - for example the Kostya Tszyu v Vernon Forrest world final was an incredible fight too, but many haven't been lucky enough to watch it.

I'm a big Froch fan. He's funny as feck. I vaguely remember on another thread some argument or explanation about the derivation of 'smoke his boots'...can anyone be arsed to remind me?

(And don't come on just to post 'no', thinking it's funny.

Franny Jones - Kevin Anderson... guts wise anyway.

Naseem Hamed: "Sitting here, I can honestly say, without any shadow of I doubt, I am gonna knock you SPARK out...."

to which came the somewhat limp in comparison retort by Kevin Kelley: "I'm gonna, pause, smoke your boots".

I was rooting for Kelley (who I gave no chance) until approximately round 2 when Hamed started getting pasted all over the show..........I very quickly turned my allegiances to my fellow countryman Hamed, who proceeded to turn things around dramatically.

......then he comes out of prison after nearly ending the lives of any number of people with an all singing, all dancing fornicating entourage.

Real classy.

Really great work!

Doesn't work in Opera :/

Try to make it work in EI, Opera and Firefox, mate.

Btw. Opera has received the 'world's fastest browser Award' 9 times out of the last 10 years.

I have always said Carl Froch will be a world champion but to say he will be the biggest thing in British Boxing by the end of the year is kicking the backside out of things - he will beat Robin Reid, he has to, to have any thoughts of making it on the world stage - through hard graft by his promotional company he is getting a name for himself in Nottingham.

But beating Reid however convincingly will not put him above Hatton, Calzaghe, Woods, Witter, Maccarinelli or Haye in my view just yet.

We have another year yet before Froch hits the really big time.

Opera?

ok mate let me see.

...its like a rubiks cube testing them all them browsers - you make a tweak for one and it upsets the other.

PS- yeah def Froch is going to be involved in it, spoke to him yesterday and he is pleased with it.

Should be fun modding it though - NOT.

That's an amazing looking site. I need a new one, you might be getting a call...

WildWaylon · Post by **WildWaylon** » 03 Oct 2007, 16:45

I will watch Froch/Reid but its a racing cert Froch will win - I suppose after his op Froch doesnt want too tough a fight but he needs a top opponent next time.

I really hope Froch makes it - there were so many people on these websites who seriously doubted - some still do!!! - that Froch is a world class fighter.

It is a nice site - well done on that...

My Dad was talking to me about what we thought of Froch (as a boxer) and unsure is what we came out with...

I don't think he could beat Calzaghe, maybe not Kessler but despite that, he still has a chance to get a version of the World Title... He could develop further and I think he'll have too much for Reid.. It is only my opinion don't forget.

Froch isn't one of the guys I support domestically - but - i'd support him against anybody not from these shores and generally wish him well... He talks a bit but comes across well after a fight!

Thing is about froch........ when he gets his chance, he will take it.

I rate his corner team as well.

Mate, he's only won the British and Commonwealth titles and fought a frine Euro fighter, he's done nothing to suggest he's world class except that he can dig and has a chin.
