    froch vs the other british SMW's - benn, eubank, calzaghe and collins

    europe and britian has provided some of the best SMW's over the last few decades and i was wondering how you rank froch compared to the rest and how he would do against them.

    FROCH VS BENN: i think froch could beat benn, froch has the chin to withstand the early onslaught and benn himself doesn't have the best chin. maybe if benn works the body early on he could score an early KO/TKO but i just dont see it.

    FROCH VS COLLINS: this would be an interesting fight, imo collins has the chin to withstand the punches and i dont think hed get caught flush either. collins is no SRL but i see him outlanding froch, i think it would be interesting to see what collins would do if froch starts to jab.

    FROCH VS EUBANK: eubank by comfortable UD. i think eubank would feel like a fat kid at a buffet, hed have so many opportunties to counter and land his favoured right hand. he has the chin to withstand frochs punches and even though eubanks stamina is not great i think hed slow the pace of the fight and cruise to the UD. frochs long jab would also pose little threat to the cat like eubank.

    FROCH VS CALZAGHE: it would be embarassing, calzaghe has the speed, activity and accuracy to outland and outbox froch. he has the chin and stamina to make sure he doesn't tire and frochs jab would pose little threat to the sharper and quicker fighter. heck even if joe decides to fight frochs fight and trades with him he wins.

    personally i think froch is in the same level as benn, maybe benn will be ranked slightly higher because he is a fan favourite. vote in the poll for who you think froch could beat.

    Benn is probably my all time favourite fighter, I think he knocks Froch out to be honest, vicious fighter

    I'm talking about the pre-McClellan Benn, he wasn't the same fighter after that.

      Froch would lose to all of them IMO.

        Froch possibly beats Collins. Eubank knocks him out, as does Benn, and Calzaghe ***** slaps him for 12 rounds in a row.

          He would beat none of them. Prime Benn would have destroyed Froch. Eubank was a machine. Even young Calzaghe would have been too much.

          Maybe if Froch waits a couple of years till Calzaghe is 40 and inactivity has taken his toll he may stand a puncher's chance. I doubt it though.

            Froch isn't that good. His defense is ****, he only won through his stamina and toughness and the fact that Taylor is also **** but a bigger ****. Eubank, Benn and Collins all beat him, as does Calzaghe.

              Likewise, although I think Calzaghe is the only one I'd bet my mortgage on.

                Loses to all of them, apart from maybe Collins. Collins was ok but his chin/power were his biggest assets something Froch also possess.

                If Taylor can drop and hurt Froch Benn would KO him, Eubank could KO him or UD him, Calzaghes wins a really wide UD.

                  Froch's defence would be brutally exposed by Benn.
                  Eubank was too smart, too tough.
                  Collins would be a close fight.
                  Calzaghe wins with ease.

                  Im not that impressed with Froch. He's tough, but slow, messy, and not a great boxer or puncher. Kessler would have little problem with him.

                    All of them could beat him, though obviously Calzaghe's the worst match up for him.
