    nobody expects froch to beat hopkins, so even if froch fought a close decision loss it would do wonders for his carear in the long run.....look how hatton became a promoter after the floyd fight, and even got another big fight.....

    fighting hopkins makes a lot of sense for froch longterm win or lose, aslong as he dosnt get brutalized.

    I think Froch can beat the aged legend. He's naturally larger than Pavlik and his workrate and chin could take him the full 12 outworking Bernard. Carl would have to invest in BHOP's body early on and throughout the bout. Carl has heart, stamina and power. He lacks the overall skill that the Philly fighter has, but I think his youth and catching Bernard Hopkins at the right time like JT and Joe Calz did.

    i have to admit that bhop's age HAS to catch up with him at some point...and that some point could come overnight at his age...(does that make sense??...it did when i thought it)

    Hopkins would beat Froch senseless and then stop him. What JT did in the first 3 rounds Old Man River would do all night long. Froch would quit on his stool, or McKracken would take pity on Carl and stop it. BHop TKO10 Froch.

    hopkins would expose froch and make him look like the slow plodding amateur that he is. ****, if he wanted he could probably school froch right into losing his first by knockout.

    Boo,your talking absolute crap again my man.At least be realistic and not blinded in your predictions.If BHop stopped Froch i'd swim the Atlantic.BHop may well beat Froch but bully and embarrass him ? i dont think so.Instead of being a hater why not give us a believable breakdown of how exactly BHop beats Froch.:good

    im not saying he will, the guy's obviously not in his prime, but i think if he wanted to, he easily could. with his hand speed, lateral movement, adaptability, etc. he will make froch look like a joke. like someone said earlier it will be like hopkins/pavlik x2.

    not to mention he's bigger than froch, unlike most of the guys froch has fought. also, froch has no hope of knocking hopkins out and when he realizes this, it's all over.

    I gave you a believable breakdown. BHop would dismantle Froch and stop him. Carl the clumsy would not hit BHop flush EVER, but Hops would hit Froch at will. Froch would quit on his still, or else the ref or McKracken would show some freaking compassion and stop this shameless mismatch.

    :deal

    I hope this fight happens easy money on Froch, at last Hopkins the grabber clincher loved by everybody will be KO.

    If you bet on Hopkins getting KTFO you will definitely lose your money.

    Hurting Hopkins is hard enough but following up that attack to finish him is even more difficult when he is rolling and slipping.

    I heard the same stuff before the Pavlik fight, that he was going to get KTFO etc :roll:
