Is all this talk about Froch having a "granite" chin a joke?

    What should I have expected for you, the man who jumps from one British fighter to the next. Are you going to tell me that Direll didn't land more in every round and throw more as well?

        I've said it before and I'll say it again. Froch is one of the most overrated fighters in the world.

            We're talking about Carl Froch here.

              Quoted for absolute truth.

                I think the punishment he absorbed in the early rounds of the Taylor fight made his chin weaker. He took some bombs from Pascal in that fight and smiled.

                  Those stiff straight punches were an optical illusion (sarcasm)

                    You know what made me laugh, as I watched on TV, I wanted to see what the British were saying so I went on a stream, and Froch said he was goign to show his slick style.

                      Well you put "Margarito had a granite chin" but since has been KO'd, Froch hasn't ... I don't see the relevancy here.

                      Froch is getting hit by heavier guys while keeping his hands down and has never been KO'd, only knocked down once.

                      Whether he has a granite chin or not you can easily put

                      "Froch has a granite chin" or "Froch had a granite chin", this far it has been tested and he has come through...

                      I'm sure Marg still has a granite chin, one fight doesn't represent his or Carls conditioning of their chin, just a reaction to getting hit in the face.


                      I consider it good, which is good enough.. he could have a diamond chin for all I care.
