An ex-boxer has gone viral after saying there is no proof the Earth is round
Carl Froch is an accomplished former British boxer who competed from 2002 to 2014, he’s since worked as a boxing analyst and commentator.
He’s recently become the talk of the internet after openly admitting he believes in some rather wild conspiracy theories.
During an appearance on the Pound for Pound podcast with Jake Wood and Spencer Oliver in December 2022, he said he believes the Earth is flat and not round. He also accused NASA of being ‘fake.’
He said (per The Sun): “The Earth is flat, 100 percent.
“There’s no proof of the Earth’s curvature, and this fake space agency, NASA, uses CGI images, and everyone is different.
“I’m looking at them thinking, ‘Hang on a minute, they’re like cartoons.’
“When someone like Richard Branson goes up there and starts doing chartered flights… and you can look back on Earth and see the Earth’s curvature, I’ll believe the Earth is a globe.”
He again reiterated his bizarre beliefs when speaking on the Macklin’s Take podcast.
When asked whether he really believes the world is flat, Froch said: “Here’s the problem. I’ve tried to prove – and I challenge anybody listening to this – prove that the Earth is spherical. Prove that it’s round. Prove that it’s actually a globe.”
Macklin replied: “All I know is that when Michael Conlan was boxing in Brisbane, we left LA and flew west and 12 hours later we were in Brisbane.
“So I don’t see how the world can possibly be flat.”
In response, the ex-boxer confusingly said: “I could get a piece of A4 paper, write down the center of the flat Earth – which is the North Pole – and write down the ice wall – which is right down the south side – all the way around the circumference of the flat Earth, and you would circumnavigate and you’d get from where you just said [L.A.] to where you just said [Brisbane] in the same flight path.
“Next question.”
Froch has also accused NASA of faking the Moon landings, even though it’s widely accepted that Neil Armstrong was the first person to walk on the lunar surface in 1969.
He told Action Network (per Daily Express): “The equipment they used to get up there was as powerful as a Zedec Spectrum, which probably wasn’t that powerful.
“It was a computer when I was a kid. We can’t get there now, and I think everything we’ve been told about the Moon landing [is made up].
“When you look at all of the evidence, all the footage, and the fact that they lost all of the telemetric data that tells you that they went to the Moon then I would say that we did not go to the Moon.
