    he has to much power and is just to awkward,theres no way mirandas knocking him out he has a solid chin,froch is one of the hardest punchers on the planet and his style draws people in,mcguigan and calzaghe have both stated publicly how high they rate him,hes only been a pro for 5 years its about time the big fights came knocking,a future world SMW champion without a doubt
    I'm not sure Calzaghe has stated how high he rates him. If so, why not challenge him? After all, he is the mandatory to Joe's WBC title.

    IMO, Joe would beat him by a wide margin, but i don't think he has publicly admitted that Froch is a threat.

        i read it in an interview joe gave a while back,,there on 2 different routes now, joes finishing and will only accept the big wonga which froch has no way of bringing to the table,froch is on his way up theres no way joe would risk it against the upstart,i do agree joe would probably outpoint him,thats unles he turns on the macho mode and gets drawn into a fight,froch would bust him up,joes no power left he aint fighting him anyway its as simple as that

          I think Miranda has problems with fighters who throws strait shots - Pavlik, Abraham, Froch and Kessler. Anyway how big a chance for a Froch - Miranda fight. Miranda is NA-not available on WBC - ratings.?

            If it even happened it would be a contender for FOTY.

            We're talking an absolute war between two technically limited, but heavy handed aggressors. I voted for Miranda by KO, but I think it would be down to who lands the big bomb first really. Froch has a good chin, but it would be severely tested by Miranda.

            I hope Froch wins, because he seems a classy guy with a lot of intelligence, but I couldn't say for certain that he would. If he fought Kessler, I'd have to back the Dane.

                All they need to know about Froch is he is a typical Puncher who relies on his great power and no boxing skill to win fights. he stalks, he follows then throws bombs. Once he faces a talented boxer that can take a punch he is in trouble.

                  This fight would be a straight shoot out between two of the hardest hitters in boxing today and it could very well be the case of the winner being whoever lands first. I have always favoured Froch when this fight was discussed on these boards in the past; I see his right hand finding Miranda's chin once too often. But, there is a worry for me over Froch's defense. He carries his hands ******ly low and unless he brings them up soon I can see him getting knocked out, especially if he faces someone who can punch as hard as Miranda.

                      If Miranda can get through Abraham then I'll surely pick him over Froch as well.
