    Froch is much better than Lacy stop it ..

      To me, Lacy had more power and was faster than Froch. While Froch's timing is a lot better, I still feel like his physical attributes make him a sitting duck for Joe. That said, I do know Froch wouldn't give up when things got tough, but he would still get wide UD'd.

        That's being kind. He ****d Lacy's soul and ended his career. The Kessler fight was close for 5 rounds, then Calzaghe made him look ******. He actually almost stopped him.


        ther'es more to it than him simply being unable to deal with adversity. he was badly hurt against allan greene, and he made adjustments. against a guy like green, you can adjust.

        who cares if froch's resolve is stronger when he's missing by wider than kessler ever would, and getting hit with cleaner counters and with more frequency.

          Froch is a much better boxer than Lacy much more proven and has a better ring IQ ..I haven't seen Joe blow out any one Froch's level..

            Eubank? I think Froch and him were on about the same level.
