    Did anyone else see Froch's knee's almost give out in the 10th?

    Andre hit him with a good combo and his knee's buckled and it looked like he was about to fall, sloppily trying to walk around, but he held on. Did anyone else catch that?

    Froch's punch resistance might be fading from the last two wars he's been in.

      What the one where he was in a boxing match and stuff like this is liable to happen to anyone from Glass Chin Khan to Iron Chin Hagler.

        I just think his punch resistance might be fading after the last two wars he's been in if hes getting rocked by Dirrell.

            What he said. A good shot from any competent opponent can rock even the granite-chinned for a few seconds. What matters is how quickly you can recover.

              His punch resistance hasn't faded, nothings changed in my eyes.

              It was silly for people to act like he had a superman's chin when he hadn't faced the heaviest punchers yet. I think Dirrell has shown us now that Froch won't be immune to damage in this tournament.

                I pretty much agree with you here Street, I think he has a "decent" chin, but not that great. Dirrel was hitting him with some nice shots, and yeah, he was staggering around the 10th.

                    His chin is good, but it gets overrated.

                    IMO it's not as good as Andrade's, Clottey's, etc.
