Yeah, I like the Cobra as a pundit, I think long term Sky should sign him up for that role.

He seems unbiased.....maybe thast quality will decrease his longevity as a sky pundit?

He also did David Haye's fight with Wladimir K on Box Office and he did not really spare his former Amateur team mate at all. He is a straight talker and is more willing to tell it like it is in comparison to other pundits.

I agree, he talks well and provides a lot of sense. You get an honesty feel with Froch, not a hype job.

My only thing I aint a fan of with Froch as a pundit is sometimes he likes to over explain himself a tad and it can result in him talking a bit too much.... that will come as he gets more experienced though - when you compare him to when Barry first started back on ITV! He's much better, and Barry is now one of the best in the business IMO.

I wish Sky use more of Spencer Oliver also.

Froch is brilliant as a pundit. For some reason, I find his straight talking funny as too.

He's measured and doesn't get too overexcited. He's also always in shape which is a good advert for the sport.

Only if he promises to dispense with the white tie, white shirt combo he's had since 2002.

Froch is superb.

Hoping he gets snapped up when he hangs the gloves up.

The guy barely gets a word in at times.

Like when he was about to break down sparring both Kenny Anderson and George Groves - and then Nelson tapped him on the thigh and rode all over what he was about to tell us all.

Nelson always jumps in on people. He cannot stand people talking on his turf.

She was just next to the tennis player Daniela Hantuchova. Seeing her certainly made my hand take over.
