Carl Froch vs Nigel Benn (primes)

[NakiFan]

Well I think this would be an awesome fight, although this post will no doubt be lost among the sea of Ali vs Tyson threads lol, andyway what do you think?

The Dark Destroyer vs Carl Fraud...this is not a hard one to predict. Fraud's defense is too god awful to survive Benn. Nigel by KO, inside 4-6.

[D-MiZe]

Carl has a granite chin, but so did McClellan..

On top of that, McClellan actually had defense.

[Benncollinsaad]

Benn would ko his ass. Taylor had him down, Benn would finish him.

[Southpaw Stinger]

Froch wouldn't have a nose left...

I think the Benn that turned up for McClellan beats the best Froch we have seen yet!

It would not suprise me to see Benn knocked down, Froch has a good punch and Benn never had the best chin......although his heart was terrific. Froch would have to absorb some sickening punches, he could see the canvas a couple of times over 12 rounds but honestly I dont see Benn stopping him. Froch has one of the best chins and ability to absorb punishment I've ever seen, plus hes so damn ****y I couldn't imagine him quitting, but I'd fancy that Benn' superior speed and movement would carry him to an exciting decision win.

Really? When a guy like Jermain Taylor puts you down, a guy that hasn't knocked another fighter down since Raul Marquez in 2004, 1 weight division south of where you meet Jermain, you have to bring into question how "great" Froch's chin really is. Marquez might have been a tough guy, but he never had any business at Middleweight, nor is Taylor the same man he was when he beat Marquez.

mcclellan was already destroyed before the benn fight, the damage to his brain had already been done by julian jackson (fact). benn never hurt him, he just hit him and caused a seizure much like one he had got in sparring from a WWs jab. only this time he didnt pull thru.

i do agree benn would beat froch though, most likely. froch can **** himself so if benn walked into that uppercit it might be good night for the dark destroyer. but since he acctually attempts to avoid punches unlike froch its more likely the cobra gets stretched.
