    Theoretically speaking, Carl Froch vs. Floyd Mayweather

    Is 168 the tipping point were Floyd would be in too deep? The way Marcos Maidana was able to find his way through the guard, I imagine Froch would ****ing obliterate any defense once he started planting his feet. Would Mayweather's speed and reflexes be enough to keep him out of the way of the heavier artillery? Could Floyd carry respectable power up to 168? An interesting proposition.

      Froch would break Floyd in half.

        Come on now. Froch would look like a heavyweight next to Mayweather. The fight doesn't make sense. Mayweather has trouble hurting boxers in his own weight class and Froch would walk through his punches like it's nothing. Froch has one of the greatest chins in boxing today. Mayweather stands zero chance even if Froch wears those pillow Everlast gloves.

            Floyd doesn't have much power at 147 bro. He'd get murked at 160 never mind 168. He's a little man who looks bigger on TV, Froch is a normal sized bloke. It would be a short-lived bullying.

              Heh, this reminds me of the people that said Floyd would be favored against Andre Dirrell at 168 back when Dirrell was relevant.

                Floyd could box the perfect fight and he would still get KO'd. The size difference is far too large.

                    £ Cash Froch £
                    VS
                    $ Money Mayweather $

                    To be honest, but i agree the size difference is big
