    Froch has ONE PUNCH KO POWER.. A solid Chin.. and enough skills to land.. if he lands he can KO ANYBODY. including Calzaghe and Taylor.. They know it.. and that is why they dont take risk.. Sure They are skilled enough to beat Froch.. But They can't avoid getting hit by him.. Not for 12 rounds.. and it scares them..

        I thought you were being serious lol, did you see him fight the Pole which has a day to prepare and hadn't fought in two years?

        He landed clean for like 4 rounds and stopped him but it took him 4 rounds to dismantle him.

          I like Froch as a Boxer and an interview... I find both Times he is entertaining.. And I truly believe he would Give Calzaghe fits..

          But the fight I remember was against Matthew Barney.. A slick Figghter with NO POWER.. who if he had any would have KO'd Froch.. he was landing his right hand at will

          So guys like Kessler and Taylor, who have good jabs that set up a mean right hand.. would Give Froch Fits.. Its all about styles..

          anyways Froch Has proved Nothing.. Potential is there.. but that's all it is for now..

            I don't think he'd give Calzaghe fits tbh, Calzaghe's handspeed and workrate and expolit his low hands by landing the left hooks and right hands at will. Froch doesn't have the speed to keep up with Joe. His fundementals are totally wrong. Hamed and Jones managed to get away with due to unorthadox movement and reflexes Froch moves in straight line and don't move his head.

              I know... but the difference being.. Froch can Hurt Joe.. and I seriously doubt Joe can hurt Froch.. and Joe is not unhittable..


              Think of Margarito VS Cotto.. If you cant hurt the guy in front of you.. and he can hurt you.. it dont matter how well you box and how many shots you land cleanly.. He will eventually get you..

                I don't think Froch can hurt Joe TBH as odd as it sounds. Hopkins put him down but didn;t hurt him. Brewer, Mitchell and Kessler all hit harder than Froch in my opinion Mitchell hurt him but Calzaghe recovered almost instantly. His head seems to clear very fast and Brewer couldn't hurt him.

                Watch the Brewer fight (you proberbly have) and Joe's chin is really demonstrated there.

                  Hopefully Pascal will do us all a favor and shut Froch's mouth. He should have no trouble outboxing him, but unfortunately if Carl lands on Jean's china chin, it will be lights out for the Canadian.

                  I'd pay a pretty penny to see Pascal spark him in the first round though. Unlikely, but so are most fantasies.

                    I have seen the Brewer fight..

                    I guess that is where we differ.. I think Froch Hits harder than Kessler..

                      because it worked for margarito and williams.
