I like Carl Froch.
Talks a lot of trash, but backs it up in the ring. Since coming on the scene after knocking out Jermain Taylor, he has fought nothing but the best of the best.
His fights are always entertaining win, lose or draw. He put a beating on Lucien Bute that had Bute reevaluating his life. He took his soul.
They have a rematch scheduled, but first Froch is taking an interim fight against Yusaf Mack.
Super middleweight titlist Carl Froch will face American Yusaf Mack in his first defense on Nov. 17, Matchroom Sport promoter Eddie Hearn announced Tuesday.
Froch, 35, will face Mack at the Capital FM Arena in Nottingham, England, the same arena in Froch’s hometown that rocked on May 26 when he upset Montreal’s Lucian Bute to win the title with an electrifying fifth-round knockout.
