He doesn't even jab for crying out loud.. he just sticks his hand out there and leaves it lmfao. Just go watch Froch Dirrell then tell me you still think Froch beats bernard today.

Froch is not technically skilled at all but a tough guy, and a strong fighter. he has beaten a few fighters that on paper should have easily beat him.

I repeat, Hopkins is all wrong for Froch. Froch resets too much, loses Rhythm after each clinch. it was proven against Andre, each time they clinched, Andre was able to run for another 20 seconds before froch ever even attempted to throw a punch. if froch had good workrate, and a better stance, i'd say it's arguable, but as of now, it isn't, Hopkins with his Clinching would never let Froch get anything off.
Froch just doesn't throw enough against someone who hugs that much.

Some people are just hard to look great against. Librados brother will always do better against that type of fighter than Froch. Froch just doesn't seem to react well to clinching and running - every fighters mentality is different in those situations.
