IS Froch vs Kovalev a mismatch?

[Butt stuff]

Froch never showed any inclination to fight at light-heavy and comfortably made 168 into his later years. I wouldn't bet a bean on Carl beating Kovalev.

Froch could probably could have weight-bullied at middleweight.

Always wondered if he could do this, he had decent power at 168 so probably would've looked like Golovkin or Abraham at 160.

I think it's a mismatch. Back in 2013 or 2014 it would not have been thought of as a mismatch. I think Kovalev would have knocked him out back then if they had fought. Kovalev is a guy who would be extremely difficult to beat in a war. Froch couldn't stand at long range and outbox him because of Kovalev's long reach and long hard accurate left jab. Froch would go to war and get KOed.
