Carl Froch Vs Andre Dirrell
This much awaited fight is almost with us. Carl Froch Vs Andre Dirrell is quite an unpredictable fight to predict. Carl Froch is strong, good power puncher, and can take a good shot. On the other hand, he is pretty slow and sluggish with his footwork and movement, something that slick boxer Andre Dirrell thinks he can capitalize on. And so do i, at least for the first 6 rounds. But when Dirrell slows down i think Carl Froch will most probably knock him out.
It really all depends on how Froch handles the sharp boxing skills of Dirrell because as we all know, Carl Froch was losing the fight with Jermain Taylor by quite a few rounds before he knocked Taylor out. Froch was lucky that Taylors stamina was lacking for going the distance of a 12 round fight. Basically Carl Froch got schooled in terms of boxing skills by Taylor. Froch was very lucky to win that fight So, will Dirrell be able to use his boxing skills and ring craft for 12 rounds..If he can he wins, simple as that.
Andre Dirrell has been rocked a few times with punchers that hit nowhere near as hard as Carl Froch. Also Dirrells level of opposition is not in the same class of Froch's. And there is an experience factor with Dirrell also, not to mention he is fighting in Carl Froch's home town of Nottingham, UK. Everything is against Dirrell in this fight, the only positive he has is he decent boxing skills and good movement.
But with all the negative factors in mind, i think Dirrell will be seeing stars at some point in the fight. He will lose by KO, because he can't run all night, so at some point he will have to stand and fight. This means getting caught with some big punches from Froch, then i think it's all over.
Let me know what you think..

**Quick Super Six Update**
Arthur Abraham Knocks out Jermain Taylor in the 12 Round!. Abraham was ahead anyway and was landing some hard shots in every round. But in the 12th he threw a wide hook, then a straight down the middle that connected flush in the face of Taylor and made him hit the canvas like a sack of spuds! Abraham fought a great fight, he covered up when he needed to, and he unloaded when the times were right.
Mikkel Kessler was ringside, he looked shocked at what he had seen. It looked like he was thinking "Do i really have to fight this guy"!!
Carl Froch Retains his WBC Title against Andre Dirrell. This was a terrible fight, very boring. Carl looked amatuerish, and was basically running after Dirrell all night. Dirrell just ran all night. It was a very close fight which Dirrell could of won if he didn't just run and run all night long.. The judges obviously gave it to Carl Froch because he was coming forward all night trying to make a fight of it. Very close fight, which, in my opinion Carl Froch was lucky to win. He was lucky the fight was at home to be honest.
But it's onwards and upwards. Froch will fight Kessler next, which should be a fight with much more action then this one. Andre Dirrell takes on Arthur Abraham.

Carl Froch Vs Jermain Taylor
Carl Froch Vs Jermain Taylor
This fight is coming soon, and i must say hats off to Carl Froch, this is the first defense of his WBC title which he won by beating Jean Pascall, and he has not picked any easy opponent to defend the title against.
Jermain Taylor is a world class boxer, who has fought world class fighters like, Bernard Hopkins, Winky Right, Kelly Pavlik, so i think we can safely say this is a big step up in class for Carl Froch. Carl Froch has not fought anyone that was near to world class and in their prime, other then Jean Pascall, and it is questionable whether he was world class or not, personally i think Pascall is no where near the class, or experience level of Jermain Taylor. The only other boxer of any stature that Carl Froch fought was Robin Reid, but he was right at the end of his career.
This is the big test for Carl Froch, winning this fight will certainly catapult him into the big time in the USA, big time big money. But if Carl Froch loses, and depending how he loses, he will be looked at as a hyped up domestic club fighter who won the vacant WBC title and couldn't even defend it once.
But there some advantages for Carl Froch fighting Jermain Taylor, one is that Taylor has already tasted defeat, and has also been knocked out. Second is Taylor has a tendency to keep his hands low, perfect for Carl Frochs uppercuts and over hand punches, keeping the hands low is a dangerous thing to do because Carl does have some power. But on the other hand, Carl Froch could be at a disadvantage because of his terrible guard, he keeps one hand by his side most of the time, which again is a dangerous thing to do against Jermain Taylor. This fight is also taking place in the USA, so home advantage goes to Taylor.
This is an interesting fight, both fighters keep their hands low, both fighters have good power, so this will be an explosive fight, with all the ingredients for a knockout either way. I very much doubt this fight will go the distance.
Carl Froch deserves some respect win or lose against Jermain Taylor, he it taking on a live, world class opponent for his first WBC title defense, which is more then most other boxers have the backbone do for their first defense.

Carl Froch On Joe Calzaghe's Retirement
Carl Froch On Joe Calzaghe's Retirement
I must say, i was quite annoyed to hear what Carl Froch had to say regarding Joe Calzaghe's retirement, he sounded very jealous and bitter. Carl Froch has made it clear, he has never really liked Joe Cazaghe, i think this could be because Joe has achieved so much and is so highly regarded by so many people in and out of the boxing business as one of the best British boxers ever, which in my opinion he is. Defending the title a record 21 times!, not forgetting unifying the titles. Just look at his fight record of 46-0-32. Take a closer look at Joe Calzaghe's record , it really is a great achievement.
I think Carl Froch should show some respect, just because Joe was at the end of his boxing career and Carl is, in reality, just hitting on the big fights, it's not a reason to hate Joe just because you didn't get to fight him. I'm sure if Joe was at a stage in his career where it made sense to fight Carl Froch I'm sure he would, and I'm certain it would be a very one sided fight in Joe Calzaghe's favor.
Some very big names in boxing have shown a lot of respect to Joe Calzaghe, for his glittering boxing career, and also his unbeaten record, fighters like Roy Jones Jr, Jermain Taylor, Chad Dawson, Mikkel Kessler, David Haye, Barry McGuigan, even Bernard Hopkins, all showed credit where credit is due.
The only one very bitter was Carl Froch, i think this shows resentment, which could come back to bite him. Let's be honest, Carl Froch will never accomplish what Joe Calzaghe has in the ring, he struggled to claim the vacant WBC Super Middle Weight Title, i can't see him defending that belt for a decade!, let alone staying unbeaten now he is starting to get big name fights coming his way.
Face it Carl, Joe Calzaghe is one the best fighters Britain has ever produced, no amount of hating will change that, and no amount of hating will get Joe to make a come back. Carl should concentrate on his own boxing career, stop hating, and hope he goes on to achieve even half of what Joe Calzaghe has, if he does, he would of done well.

Joe Calzaghe Retires From Boxing
Joe Calzaghe Retires From Boxing
After a long and successful boxing career Joe Calzaghe finally hangs up his gloves, leaving the sport with one of the most impressive records of 46-0-32. Joe Calzaghe has done the right thing in my opinion, he has beaten everyone he has faced and has nothing left to prove. Joe Calzaghe was champion for 11 years!, he also unified the belts of the super middleweight division and even went up in weight and won a light heavyweight belt.
Many people say that Joe Calzaghe slapped with his punches, but the accumulation of those punches broke most fighters down eventually, also if he did slap with his punches doesn't that make him even more of a great champion? He has never lost and yet he can't even punch! Now that really does take some skill. Personally i believe Joe could punch to a certain degree, specially early in his boxing career, but when his hands started playing up he lost a lot of his punching power, but yet still never lost a fight which makes him a superb, very skilled champion, maybe one of the best Britain has ever produced.
People will always say Lacey was overrated, Kessler Was robbed, Hopkins was robbed, Jones Jr was shot etc, but the fact is he beat them all, and before all those fights mentioned everyone thought Joe Calzaghe would lose, he proved everyone wrong. No one can say, with any certainty that Joe Calzaghe isn't one of the best, there's is a handful of boxers who have retired undefeated and that alone is a great achievement. To stay champion for 11 years is another achievement that only a few boxers have ever matched, so few, you could count them on one hand.
I think he deserves some credit for all his achievements, also for the way he stayed hungry, not letting the money and fame go to his head, not many boxers can withstand the pressure. Joe Calzaghe still trained at the same gym in New Bridge, Wales, which was no show home, this was a run down gym that had no luxury's what so ever, but this was the right type of environment to keep a fighter hungry. I think Joe Calzaghe is a one off, he has remained very down to earth and still seemed as hungry in his last fight as he was in his first, that's how grounded he was, which is how you have to be in order to stay focused and never lose.
There has been some talk regarding the boxer Carl Froch, Carl says Joe is running scared! I have never heard such nonsense. Here's a guy that has only won the VACANT title that Joe Calzaghe gave up so he could fight at light heavyweight, and he think's Joe is scared to fight him. Joe Calzaghe has achieved far more then Carl Froch will, has fought far better opponents at a much higher level, and is at the end of his long and successful career, so why does he need to fight-The not known anywhere in the world Carl Froch who won his vacant belt? This fight is totally meaningless, Joe would of made Carl Froch look silly. I think this shows us one thing, there will always be an up and coming boxer with a big mouth that wants his shot at the main man in the division, with the big payday etc. Joe Calzaghe done the right thing by not fighting him and giving him a payday. Joe Calzaghe does not need that fight, he's proved himself to be the best, Carl Froch hasn't got anywhere near that, not even close.
My hats off to Joe Calzaghe, you definitely made the right decision in retiring, with nothing left to prove. May you have a nice time in your retirement.

Carl Froch Vs Jermain Taylor
Carl Froch Vs Jermain Taylor
Well, talks are going on at the moment for Carl Froch Vs Jermain Taylor. This will be Carl Froch's first WBC Super Middle Weight Title Defense. Jermain Taylor is a good fight for Froch, no one can say he is taking the easy route as Taylor is known as a good fighter, one of best in the division.
This should be a great fight, both fighters always come to fight and are always in great shape. I would say Carl Froch is taking a step up here in terms of a higher profiled opponent, and also skill level, Jermain Taylor does have some good boxing skills and can dish out some punishment.
As we seen against Jean Pascal, Carl Froch can take some superb punches, he has good punch resistance, but i would say Jermain Taylor does hit harder then Pascal. In the Carl Froch Vs Jean Pascal fight, Carl did get caught with way too many hard punches, although he took them well, will he be able to take the same amount of punches if Jermain Taylor is the one doing the punching?, not Pascal.
Carl Froch needs to work on his defense if he wants to stand a chance against the best super middle weight fighters. I do think he will beat Jermain Taylor but he will take many solid punches doing so. Carl Froch has good punching power so i wouldn't be surprised if Carl Froch Knocks Out Taylor, let's not forget, Taylor has been Knocked out a few times, and Froch definately has the power. I would love to see Carl Froch Vs Kelly Pavlik if Carl Beats Taylor, that would be a great fight.
Carl Froch Vs Jermain Taylor should be interesting, i see Froch winning, but it could go either way. I doubt this fight will go the distance, one of them will get knocked out.

Carl Froch Wins The WBC Title Over Jean Pascal
Carl Froch Wins The WBC Title Over Jean Pascal
Carl Froch Vs Jean Pascal was a superb fight. Carl Froch is now the new WBC Super Middle Weight Champion. Hats off to both Carl Froch and Jean Pascal, this fight was all action from start to finish.
Carl Froch trained so hard for this fight, he wanted that WBC belt more then anything. Well, he made his dream come true.
Every round of this fight was a trading of power punches, both fighters took some heavy punches and kept on going, so determined to win the vacant WBC Super Middle Weight Title, they both let it all hang out. There were some scarey moments for Carl Froch when he was caught by some big shots but he handled them well, Carl Froch's chin and punch resistance were tested like never before. Carl Froch handled the punches, he has a great chin, but he did get hit by way too many punches. Carls defense does need some work, if he was against a harder puncher with the amount of clean punches he got caught with he would of hit the canvas.
Now that Carl Froch is now the new WBC champion he will be facing some of the best fighters in the super middleweight division, like Kelly Pavlik, Mikel Kessler etc, so Carl Froch will have to tighten up his defense to stand a chance of defending his WBC belt.
Jean Pascal has nothing to feel ashamed about, he gave it his all and put up a great fight, but Carl Froch just seemed too determined, maybe he had the edge with the fight being in his home city of Nottingham and having all his fans and family there.
He fully deserved the win, he did not have an easy fight to win the title. Now he has to defend the title, with it being the WBC title, he will have people very eager to fight him. The WBC belt is the best and most highly regarded belt.

Carl Froch Vs Jean Pascal
Carl Froch Vs Jean Pascal
Carl Froch Vs Jean Pascal should be an interesting fight. Styles make fights and their styles seem to have that air of "who will win" type of feeling. Carl Froch's style has always been the same, he leaves his jab hand by his side, which could be a dangerous thing to do against Jean Pascal. The hand that Carl Froch leaves by his side leaves him wide open to Jean Pascals best punch so i hope Carl knows this and keeps that hand up. Carl Froch and Jean Pascal are both good fighters, they do both have some power too.
Jean Pascal's style is quite elusive, though he does get hit, he reminds me of Floyd Mayweather slightly, obviously not as good or slick but he has similar movement. Carl Froch and Jean Pascal are both undefeated so someones 0 will go.. I am finding it hard to pick a winner for this one, it is quite an even match up and they both have good and bad qualitys. We will just have to see how they mix together on the night. I do think though, that at some point Carl Froch will get caught from an overhand right while his hand is low and we will see him tested like never before.
I do think Carl Froch has an advantage with the fight being held in his home city of Nottingham. But if Jean Pascal can keep his focus he might just win, he has all the tools, but does throw wide punches which could get him hurt. I honestly think it will matter who really wants it the most and performs on the night.

British Boxing
How Good is British Boxing?
At the moment i think British Boxing is on a high. We have shot through the ranks lately and have some great fighters. The USA have seen this recently in the name of Joe Calzaghe, thats just mentioning one. David Haye is another British Boxer that springs to mind. Not too long ago British Boxing was on the decline, but in a change of events, it's now the state of USA's boxing that is alarming everyone.
British Boxing now has a decent prospect for a Heavy Weight Title (David Haye). We Have arguably one of the best fighters for many many years (Joe Calzaghe). Lets not forget Ricky Hatton, he may of lost to Floyd Mayweather, but there is no shame in that. Floyd Mayweather is the best in the world. Ricky Hatton is still a force and is definately one of the key players in the elite team of British Boxing.
We also have Amir Khan, he may be chinny, but how many chinny fighters have won world titles? There are quite a few. I do beleive Amir Khan needs to learn a lot more, which he has time to do. He has some good trainers and sparring partners around him at the moment, which can only improve his talent and ability, i think he could become a good fighter that could be a king pin for future British Boxing. He has the talent no doubt.
Lets not forget about Carl Froch, i think Carl Froch has some good skills. He has some testing times ahead, but i think Carl will establish himself as a great fighter in years to come.
This is only a few of the already established British Boxers, there are so many up and coming British Boxers at the moment, i think British Boxing has a bright future.
