Backstage With Froning and Fraser

[@sportsbettingeducation]

Man it’s insane how great this content is. Such a shame that CFG fired Sevan.

[@jamesdoran2109]

Who is this peanut of an interviewer? What kind of questions are these?! Damn man. Have a little bit of tact. Rich's response at the end was perfect though. Such a class act.

[@AwesomeTank63]

Sevan matossian

[@DaRock1]

Rich is a class act. i couldn't have kept my cool as well as he did.

[@thesergeant3524]

lol. the reason i appreciate Sevan is that he's willing to ask the uncomfortable questions that no one else has the balls to ask. That and his questions almost come off insulting, which results in some great and real responses from the athletes. When I first watched his interviews last year I thought "man, this guy is a dick". Now appreciate his prowess behind the camera. I'm looking forward to seeing more of his 'behind the scene footage' for 2015.

[@LMAAAAYOOO]

Rich isnt coming back. Get over it. I bet the first question the winner this year will get asked is "If Rich was here do you think you wouldve won?"

[@MrDorkaminski]

its like the guy asking questions is trolling fraser to his face

[@michailvolski5035]

these questions are painful to hear

[@oliverbarrett9203]

Great guys and great ambassadors for the sport. Clearly intelligent, modest and likeable people. One of the reasons that I love CrossFit as a spectacle, because of the type of people who compete, who are so natural in front of a camera and don't appear to have been over-coached in how to handle the media so that they give a politicians answer to each question whilst still being diplomatic, funny and genuine. Would love to meet them some time.

[@MrRinalj09]

The last question was the best, "Do you wish that you wouldn't have engaged me just now?"

[@nozrep]

Froning, such a badass. Doesn't mince words. Love it.

[@megaxe1915]

this is setting up a workout for this year now, it will be a great interview

[@senorgato70]

I am a HUGE Matt Frasier fan. BUT. I would love to see Josh Bridges or Ben Smith take the top podium spot before Matt wins it.

[@dirtrdr042792]

I couldn't agree with you more.

[@VietBong]

Dream come true :)

[@senorgato70]

Kevin Nguyen YES!!!!!!

[@danielmoth8917]

And then Matt annihilated everyone this year.

[@jarred1369]

4 years later, he’s still on top 😂

[@MrDavidtinman]

I love how every interview in the past year Sevan has asked Froning if there's a chance he will do individual competition this year and the response has always been the same. We still get to see him compete and 15.1/15.1a was a great way to watch him enter his first season as a team member.

[@luuuk4s]

Sevans interviewing skills are amazing! :-D He ist direct, funny and he ist asking the questinos everybody wants to know!

[@christophereaton4574]

Best interviewer around. Love the way he interacts with the athletes

[@bunnyswallows]

what a terrible interview..

[@blakeschwartz9474]

2:10 rich winked i saw it!

[@Fleezyy]

I'm pretty sure Rich winks compulsively. Haha it's that Froning charm.

[@greyglassL92]

+Blake Schwartz looked like a twitch to me, im not gonna get my hopes up

[@Gquebbqco]

Congrats Rich - you are a crossfit Cyborg!

[@evansaber7642]

Sevan is the man. He gets people so uncomfortable lol

[@zsoltberes6324]

The guy doing this interview is a nut

[@danielwilson348]

Sevan is getting more and more annoying. Please, stop asking the same boring questions over and over again. Please!!!

[@danielwilson348]

I would relly want Ian Wittenber.to do the videos from now on. He´s a much more cool dude. and he makes it fun all the time.

[@ArminKhanpour]

"what have you done for me lately?!?"

[@TheWavemtn182]

why does no one ask who the hell his team is going to be?!?!?!?!

[@Willbur-91]

Going to miss rich froning

[@shanespringer3714]

Spoiler Alert: He's back.

[@chappa1234]

I forget what the interviewers name is but he's always trying to stir the pot. I find it hilarious. Rich handles it really well though.

[@ThaiNom]

Wow this interviewer is awful.

[@gotice932]

Ask more annoying questions than Matossian. You can't.

[@theeNellyD]

The interviewer sounded very condescending - they must know each other

[@nickelplatefitness]

I wonder what could happen if Frazier & Froning formed a team….

[@jaredweeks7026]

Sevan really has a fetish for dissing Mat Fraser because Sevan is a jealous egomaniac. He makes it about himself, interrupts athletes, constant negative comments... The way I see it put anyone else back there--someone who respects who he or she is interviewing!

[@ligcmp]

That would be great if Rich gave Sevan Marshawn Lynch answers.

[@ellionrosario5852]

he has already won 4 years in a row im pretty sure he wants to try something different

[@beastmastermac]

You can tell Rich is so tired of answering these questions

[@damiencooper4487]

So if he wins the open, will he go to regionals? If not, what happens to his spot? Even more so if he goes to the regionals and qualifies?!

[@44mory]

Fraser is the GOAT

[@Azonde]

I love mat, like hes mine

[@krma2870]

Q guapos

[@thingX1x]

Don't ask Fraser about Rich!

[@PatCFLabat]

So if i get this right... rich is coming back? (just kidding)

[@andreaidnob]

This guy could have prepared the questions before, at least...

[@strickstang85]

Rich wins 2014 and wins 2016 open! If they both were in their primes and did the games in 10 years I think Rich wins 7 out of 10 times

[@johnscott9845]

Froning is such an alpha male

[@susycastillo13]

Oh Man :::: the questions coming from this Guy are repetitivo & pull out no new information.

[@GreynSilver7]

There are three types of interviews that Sevon gives, funny, informative, and annoying...this was definitely an annoying interview.

[@robertgillett-jackson7550]

Rich is boss as, so is Fraser. Unfair to compare them like this, might create some unpleasant feelings between them.

[@elizabethhurt4697]

is rich wearing clear braces?

[@edgarchavez9037]

I saw that too

[@rockyheinzrunner]

I thought so. He has the time now to deal with extra pain outside of going after the Games.

[@senorgato70]

Was wondering the same thing. Maybe he's got those invisiline things in, but his mouth definitely seems a bit different these days.

[@GolfDudes]

Yes, you can see them clearly in the post open workout interview.

[@senorgato70]

Jameson Ford Yes, the sideviews on this video, you can see them. When i saw the video that Rory McKernan posted to his IG, my first thought was, "wow, 'retirement' hasn't been good to Rich" because his mouth area just looked odd.

[@rebnae]

Rich is not amused.

[@JohnDoe-rq9hr]

Rebecca Naeve mmmkay groupie

[@osetin1536]

Бля этот тип крут очень крут💪💪💪💪😎

[@osetin1536]

Froning💪💪💪😎

[@MichaelCronan49]

Im glad they got rid if this interviewer. He's absolutely shocking!!

[@LastChanceFossil]

The guy interviewing... smh

[@hack169]

Did Rich get braces?

[@MCwalk02]

hack169 yup. just bottom teeth though.

[@evansaber7642]

Relevant boe

[@linhkimthiyphugaming4013]

bob dylan

[@MCwalk02]

When rich had braces

[@hittman1412]

The guy who does these interviews is more cringeworthy than Dave Castro's backwards cap. "Dooooo yooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu ..."

[@SeanLiu01]

I'm sorry but this interviewer is terrible.

[@daydreamer3952]

What pills is Rich taking?

[@MGSportsChannel]

When you interview someone, know the questions before hand. Saying um, pausing and taking up more time than you should is annoying.

[@TMR2418]

This guy doing the interview. Hahaha He is not the greatest. But he is funny, sevan ?? Is that right? 👍

[@MCwalk02]

why does he have a underbite and braces at 28?

[@kasimirb5155]

These questions were absolutely legitimate - but the answers were far from the truth. Of course it will diminish the title of any CrossFit Games winner, if Froning should win the Open and not participate as an individual. Hence my question to him: Why doing the Open at all? It's awkward and humiliating for all other athletes. I guess this is Dave Castro's work again.

[@redskater42]

This interviewer is awkward and probably shouldn't continue to interview athletes.
