While his career was largely successful, Froch also experienced challenging fights, such as the split decision win over Andre Dirrell someone who he names as the quickest opponent he came up against.
“Dirrell was like lightning. He was fast, athletic, good on his feet and he could bang,” said Froch when speaking to The Ring in 2014.
“Dirrell perhaps lacked the mindset for the game, and without that you’re just a fancy sports car, running on empty. Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.”
