Hes only been down once as a amateur/professional. He faced top class opposition and never once has he really looked like hes been on the road to getting knocked out.

    Take the kessler fight, froch had hsi bidy worked more than his face, which was barely touched until the 8th. Kess ws eating froches jab, and straight rights.

    I think froch has a underated defence and evidence suggests this...
    I don't know if you realize this, but you didn't give any valid argument to prove his defense is not that bad.

    Some fighters are more inclined to cut. Froch is less.
    Some fighters take a lot of punishment and stay on their feet. Like Chuvalo.
    He's never been on the verge of being ko'ed ? That doesn't mean he has a good defense at all.

    If anything, your post only prove that Froch has a good chin and has no blatant tendency to cut or mark (even though Kessler cut him).

        Froch isn't a defensive fighter, but he does fine without being one.

          You should see Froch in interviews, he thinks he is a defensive fighter! He considers himself a defensive power puncher. Yet, I think he isn't as strong as he thinks he is, and I also think his defense is ****tier then he believes it to be.
