    Does Hearns outspeed and outbox Froch?

    Or does Froch catch Tommy or rough him up on the inside?

    Hearns would have battered that mug senseless inside 2 rounds.

    Froch would get seriously busted up that's why.

    Froch lost one fight at super middle,to Andre Ward.
    What did Hearns do at the weight?
    He drew with a past it Leonard ,won a dec from Olajide,and got a majority dec over Kinchen

    Who did he ,"seriously bustup" at super middle ?

    Who of any class did he even stop at that weight?

    physical wise what cost groves also exists in hearns. physical and skill wise what groves troubled froch with is magnified in hearns.

    froch is my pick tho, but not confidently.

    Based on all the super middles he didn't stop?
    Who ever stopped Froch?
    I think you're looking for the General Forum,this isn't it!

    I think Hearns stops him.

    Interesting fight. Froch would have his moments and make it an exciting fight. However, Froch has obvious flaws in his defense , he would not be able to take those right hand bombs by the hitman throughout the fight.

    My sentiments are this exact post but switching the names. I think Froch probably knocks him out late.

    Froch would take a lot of early punishment from Hearns. Question is whether he endures and finds a way to wear Hearns down and catch him before succumbing to the blows. Intriguing matchup.
