    Have never seen him hurt - but he hasn't fought anyone in the top 10.

    Have seen him outworked at times but his punching power usually keeps opponents less willing to put themselves in the way of his winging shots.

    The only person i've heard call him Frok is that guy on Setanta wwho stood in on Bunce's boxing hour. He knew nothign about boxing.

    Just like those people on Ultimate Talk who know **** all about MMA and called Wanderlei Silva Wand instead of Vand, and Rashad Evans Rashad instead of Rashard.

    Froch is pronounced Frotch.

    Not Frok. :lol:

    I personally thought he looked stunt a few times against Reid but it's been a while since I've seen that fight so I might be wrong.

    A solid chin doesn't mean he won't be stopped, let's not forget body shots.

    I really want Froch to win because to lose would make him look like a prize turnip after all his talk.

    I've thought since day one his chin is rock solid. Me and my mate joked about it solely cos his defence was so hilarious. I've never seen someone so bad at shoulder roll, fights exclsively in that guard and yet has become so successful. Nevertheless, Froch hasn't been down am or pro and continues to show how good his chin is. When Pascal was nailing him he never really looked hurt. Shaken but never stirred.

    I think it's hard to judge his chin at the moment given that he hasnt really been in with anyone who can test it. But have to agree with achilles that there must be something to it given his defence is so bad!

    He's an exciting fighter and good for the sport, but with that sloppy defence I think he's a KO waiting to happen.

    Kessler would make him taste the canvas I reckon. I hope they get that fight on!

    Kessler is the best around at 168, Froch best be hoping that fight doesnt come around too soon!
