    Aside from the other attributes, all of which are debatable, this better chin stuff is confusing... Based on what does Froch have the better chin. He got put down by 1 shot from Taylor while it took like 8 to get Pavlik down.

    He wasn't comparing Froch to Miranda, just when the stoppage would occur I think...

    Froch has a better chin than Miranda? The same two guys who stopped Miranda would stop Froch.

    Froch has more power? Horse****!

    Miranda has faster hands than Froch, and better defense. Ya, I know it's wierd to say Miranda has better defense than someone, but Froch's defense is his face.

    Froch seem to have become a god since the stoppage of Taylor's shell.

    Yup. At the time I thought Taylor won. Few months later I saw it again and scored it for Pavlik. As you say, lots of close rounds.

    They're each going to have a fight in between that it looks like. Pavlik v Sturm and Froch v Bute or Hopkins

    Taylor has lost all his fighting spirit in the two fights with Hopkins, after that...a shitty draw fight with Winky, really look like **** against ''the dream'' Ouma, again look unspectacular vs Spink, lost to Pavilk x2, beat the overrated shell of Lacy......So, yes, i think Froch beat a shell of the former Bad intention.
