Carl Froch pissed over Yusaf Mack – Boxing Mack
Briton fighter Carl Froch is furious over Yusaf Mack for calling him a ‘fake Joe Calzaghe’. Froch has now vowed to make Mack pay for labelling him as such on Saturday when both the fighters meet in the ring. Froch is scheduled to defend his IBF super middleweight
title for the first time against Mack at the Capital FM Arena in Nottingham.
On the other hand, Mack believes Froch needs to prove himself to his country if he wants to get rid of the label ‘fake Joe Calzaghe’.
“I said he's a fake Joe Calzaghe and it got under his skin,” said Mack. “He's got to prove to his country and fans that he can knock me out.”
Froch grabbed the title from Canadian fighter Lucian Bute in May this year. He is currently coming to the fight with losses against two elite fighters, Andre Ward and Mikkel Kessler. The reason Mack called him that was the fact that Joe Calzaghe retired
from the sport unbeaten, while Froch has two defeats in his career.
“I'm glad that he and his trainer have had a bit to say and I am glad he's started talking a good game,” Froch said. “He had little to say three or four weeks ago and he's had little to say today.”
“He said a few things about Calzaghe a few weeks ago, but come Saturday night he's going to be in a whole world of trouble. He's in my territory and he's going to feel some serious wrath,” he added for Mack.
For now, Froch is being considered the better fighter between the two, as he is in his form and is ready to give Mack h**l in the ring. On the other hand, Mack believes he will be able to strip Froch off his title, making him actually look like a ‘fake Joe
Calzaghe’.
Froch is considering a title rematch against Lucian Bute once he beats Mack. Now that Mack is under his skin, Froch is even more eager to beat the American fighter, who stands with 4 losses and 31 wins in his portfolio.
