    Froch wins in a candidate for fight of the year. Both men absolutely throwing everything at each other in a no holding back type fight. But Iran s face absorbs most of the punishment, until he's pulled out by his corner at the end of the 9 th.

    Froch aint blowing away ****. Barkley was no Bute or Mack. He was a big, tough, strong mofo. This fights highly competitive.

    This is a hell of a fight. Genuinely couldn't pick it. But it would be a war.

    Ironman Froch would absorb some heavy bombs and come off
    the canvas to rally and win a decision in brutal war of attrition.

    Lean towards Froch. But a Barkley win wouldn't surprise

    Froch had a better chin than Barkley. Froch wins by late stoppage.

    Big strong tough mofos can be beat/blown away though. Benn blew him away, admittidly with more punch power than Froch, but who knows !

    Barkley said he was weight drained for the Benn fight. Benn didnt exactly blow Barkley away as it was a back and forth fight while it lasted. Barkley hurt Benn also if I recall. Froch doesn't have the athleticism, speed or intensity of Benn so I don't see this fight looking anything like Barkley - Benn. This one's probably going to points.
