nice sig kauki. jt really is a kindhearted, simpleton good ol' boy, like lennie in 'of mice and men', "livin' off the fatta' the lan"
Yes he is,..kind've withdrawn and bottled up, but his soul literally glows through his eyes. He was frequently tormented as a child, and pinned himself to his boxing coach as a kid, quaking about the criminal life he didn't want,...no stupid hick child, would be troubled in quite this way, if they didn't have the heart, which is why it really is painful, seeing a genuine person of this calibre, losing to the low end 'Bernard Hopkins equivalent' of England,.. the kind've primitive, territorial, hooligan trash you see roaring and rioting at 'footy' games,...
I know, in fact I find it fucking hilarious :: It's like he's completely oblivious to the fact that he's actually quite slow and sloppy.
LOL it's true man, the guy is a riot ::. The accent as well, it's just quality, coupled with the house renovation speech he gave in that interview for the bbc ::. He is nowhere near as good as he believes he is, but he deserves credit for chasing the big names, ah man, when he calls people out, it's like being threatened by an estate agent ::
froch looks like he couldnt beat an average athletic joe up. but he has the x-factor quite obviously as not only is he undefeated...but he has beaten 2 world champions! when he fights a puncher he is going to get merked early.
Nice comparison SnD ::...for real, with all those delusions and his home maintenance obsession, plus having lived in Leicester for plenty of years myself (close enough), he could become a favorite of mine, although I doubt he will stay undefeated long
:: Yea he will lose very soon, but he's definitely become a favourite of mine, just for that interview alone :: Imagine he went off on a tangent like that in a press conference, that would be brilliant
Froch drops Andrade TKO7. You can't just give carl your chin. Green always runs out of gas mid rounds, and has real health problems. Froch TKO8 or 9. Bute dances circle s around Carl. Interbox always has a game plan. Kessler makes him feel like "why did I show up". Froch is a top ten guy you have to respect cause of heart and power.:bears:
I have to admit, I do kind of like that side of him. That totally absurd side. He looks like a mousy haired farmer, his funny nottingham accent, his detailed yet casual speech about property developing, the fact that he thinks he is Roy jones in the ring but actually looks like a farmer's son imitating Roy Jones, and on top of all that, someway, somehow, he can actually fight a bit, and has now beaten 2 legit fighters ::
I agree totally. I found myself laughing out loud. Most American boxers sound like idiots because most athletes are idiots and American athletes are not expected to learn how to speak or read if they are talented enough. To me, Brits always sound funny. I pissed a bunch off in Hong Kong because I burst into laughter due to your ridiculous accents. "Ridiculous" is obviously a subjective term on my part. I think for the most part British English is vastly superior to our English, especially in eloquence and word choice.
We've got the same going on with Calzaghe, in an inverse sense. Ward would beat Joe 10/10 it seems. :wack:
