Which Brit prospect will achieve more in the ring?
Froch is already British and Commonwealth supermiddle champ and looking to break into bigger and better things in the states with a three fight deal with De La Hoya. He's got quick hands and power in either one. His problem looks to be fighting with a kind of style which you need better reflexes than he has to pull off - he gets a lot of criticism for his lax defence and I think a lot of it is justified - when he comes up a big puncher with some quickness he might end up in trouble
Haye has already lost but he is very insistent that he's a better fighter for it. He has heavyweight power and already has some names on his record (albeit faded ones). He's even calling out Gurov already. For me he is a massive talent - but until he comes through a tough fight when he takes a bit of punishment and comes back, there will always be a question about his ability to take a punch (having gone down against Mock - a light heavy - and getting knocked out by Thompson)
