Pascal - Tough as old boots, Froch beat a prime version, he became a world champion after Froch took his undefeated record. It was also a FOTY candidate
Taylor - Not really washed up, probably not in his complete prime but at the time was still an excellent fighter. Froch knocked him out in his backyard.
Dirrell - Close fight, could've gone either way. Ran like a b1tch from Froch all night.
Kessler - The first fight was close, could've gone either way, and again Froch went to his backyard. The second time, Froch clearly beat him and avenged his loss. Kessler was a fine fighter, and certainly one of the best in his division.
Abraham - The #1 SMW right now.
Johnson - Tough as old boots
Ward - Clear decision to Andre, but Froch didn't disgrace himself, came on strong in the second half of the fight, if it was a 15 rounder, Froch would've knocked him out. Froch's preparation was also interrupted by the ash cloud. Ward ducked a rematch.
Bute - Regarded as a killer when Froch fought him, many people had him as the #1 in the division and was ranked p4p. Ward didn't want anything to do with him, nor did anyone else.
Groves - Tough up and coming fighter, regarded as one of the top talents in the sport. Was never the same after Froch Cobra'd him.
Froch was a warrior, he went to undefeated fighters backyards and beat them, and didn't try and drain all his opponents and make up a new weight class for himself.
