    Froch chin is very good, but his recovery rate is excellent. Overall that makes him a very hard fighter to stop.

    He can definitely be hurt and knocked down, but his powers of recovery are fantastic.

    Two more guys like this that can be hurt but recover extremely well are Maidana and Marquez.

    Y'all are harping on Froch being dropped once and rocked a few times.







    In an ENTIRE career of carelessly using his face as his only defense.

    Froch has a great chin but he gets tagged way to mkuch, during the johnson fight several of those right hands seemed really painfull and he took them easy.
    But a great chin should be something you can rely on instead of something you overuse imo.

    Bronco McKart i think. But if u watch that Taylor fight, he just UNLOADS everything he had on Pavlik chin... We all know the history..

    <----------------- BETTER CHIN! :good

    Yeah, and Taylor was a huge puncher right? Yeah he put Froch on his arse, but Taylor dropped the kitchen sink on little Kassim Ouma for 12 rounds and couldn't even get him to wobble. He also beat up on little Alfredo Cuevas a 154 pounder for 12 rounds and couldn't get him out of there. Yeah, Froch has a decent chin, but saying he took an uppercut from Jermain Taylor means what exactly?
