When Froch had the IBF belt, I believe Adonis was next in line to face him but they both then went in different directions with Stevenson moving up to 175.
If the fight had happened back then, how do you see it going?
It's a 50/50 fight in my book. Froch isn't hard to hit and Stevenson has major league power so I could see him getting Froch out of there particularly in the first half of the fight. On the other hand Stevenson fades and and Froch never seemed to. It would be just as easy to envision Froch putting an exhausted Stevenson away late
Froch would probably have pulled out a close, tough fight, but since Stevenson was a nobody, Froch would get zero credit.
But Pimp is very well technically schooled imo he's Kronk taught through and through and Kronk doesn't produce technically deficient fighters
I think Stevensons athleticism, speed and power give Froch hell for 4-6 rounds after that its all Froch.
I expect it basically looking like Froch vs Groves 1
Now that you've mentioned that fight, the thing is Pimp is a much harder puncher than Groves not to mention Froch doesn't exactly have the best of head movements.
I see it going either the way you two fellas have suggested it or Stevenson shocks Froch early with a left from hell and Froch just takes a beating eating left hand after left hand
I will say this - if Manny Steward is alive for this fight (in the context of this poll) and in Pimp's corner, Stevenson wins hands down

Froch gets koed. He needed the refs and the judges help to beat a nobody in Direll, went life and death against grandpa Johnson. Lol
His best wins are hype job Bute or Pascal whom gets beaten by every one half decent and groves or shot to **** Kessler.
Super man would destroy him.
