froch's warm up , tick over fight is against an ex undisputed middleweight champ who has only lost to p4p greats. Just goes to show the level froch fights at!!!
Froch all day long Pavlik hasn't been relevant in years, and even in his prime his whole legacy is based around a one year period where he beat Taylor twice, outside of that he's done nothing
How many big wins does he have full stop? Losing to martinez the way he did was criminal imo, martinez is very good but he was 2 divisions smaller than Pavlik, if pavlik was anything special he should have been able to grind out a win in that one
i don't know that froch is tougher than pavlik. i've only seen pavlik have trouble with slick fighters...and while froch may be slick for a european fighter...i don't believe he has the kind of slickness that has given pavlik troubles. froch will be there to be hit. it will come down to who takes the shots better. both of these guys defense leaves a lot to be desired. i'm going with pavlik on this one.
I dont doubt that pavliks chin is solid but you are saying that a fight is going to come down to who takes a better shot and you are going against carl froch. Seriously?
