    First right hand by Froch will have Benavidez evaluating his management.

    Froch is the more proven fighter and he would have beaten Benavidez in a hard fought battle.

    What Froch lacked in skills he more than made up for with grit,fitness and determination,he would have broke Benavidez heart and stopped mid to late rounds.

    He's 26 and fight better people than Froch had at his age.

    I need to see more if Benavidez before I take him over a guy like Froch. One thing is for sure, this is an amazing fight from style perspective. We all know Froch can dig down deep and fight through hell. We haven't seen Benavidez do that yet.

    Froch would stand up to and bully Benavidez.
    Maybe. He was good at that game. DB still developing as many have pointed out

    I think this is the correct response, rather than predicting a blow out for either guy.

    Both have advantages over the other.

    Benavidez is a much better infighter, and punishes the body more effectively than Froch did.

    Froch admittedly was more explosive hitter to head.

    Staggering people don't understand this.

    As far as the OP goes, ask again in 2-3 years.
