Froch & Dodson Set To Battle at Last

[GEOFFHAYES]

So could most of his opponents.

****, not many men hit harder than Lacy, power isn't anything unless you can lay hands on him.

Well that's just it, Froch can box out of range and has some awkward unusual shots from silly angles.

I just think the guys ****ing dangerous.

He's always good against southpaws and come-forward fighters, too.

[GEOFFHAYES]

you have actually sparred with froch havent you. how did it go? did you get any good shots on him?

if life depended on it. could you give a good run for his money?

I did spar with Froch in '98 and he was very difficult to hit and a very hard hitter himself, definately in the class of a young Ryan Rhodes who I had sparred with four years earlier.

was he as ****y in training as he can be in the ring geoff ?

[GEOFFHAYES]

was he as ****y in training as he can be in the ring geoff ?

I can't really remember. I didn't speak with him, and he didn't speak or showboat during sparring though he did have his hands by his waist.

It's interesting that Froch regards Naseem Hamed as a great 'technical' boxer..
