    I know it's never going to happen but in people's opinion if Carl Froch decided to go to 175lbs how do you think he'd go against the current champs?

    Froch v Stevenson
    V Kovalev
    v Hopkins
    v Braehmar

    Loses to all of them except Braehmar.

    Hopkins would embarrass him and it's a fight Carl should never take. His fragile ego would get destroyed when Hopkins outboxes him.

    I think he KO's Stevenson. Kovalev, who knows? B-Hop out boxes him. Beats that other guy too.

    Stevenson would probably be able to put a dent in froch,bigger man and athletic. If froch can stand up to his punches tho i think Froch could get to him with his own power. I think a Stevenson UD/MD with KDs either way isnt beyond question.

    Kovalev does little wrong massive power cant see Froch getting the better of him

    Hopkins - Carls too slow even at near 50 Bhop would be the sharper fighter and his technical ability would make Froch miss by miles. I do wonder if Carl could impose his work rate and make hopkins tire a bit but squaring up would probably be carls down fall and hopkins would out box him

    Braehmar hes probably got a decent chance with - hes been protected for most of his career and carl might have the bigger dimensions

    I think Froch would beat Braehmar, but it would be a bit more competitive than originally thought. Perhaps UD in a fairly close but clear fight.

    Stevenson on one hand I see as being to athletic for Froch but against Fonfara he showed that whilst he can punch if you keep on him his gas tank isn't A grade. What would trouble Froch I believe is Adonis's body punching.
    Pick em fight.

    I think B-Hop even at 50 would have too much for Froch and would shut Froch down. B-Hop UD.

    Now Kovalev I think is all wrong for Froch powerful puncher who punches in bunches and will bring the fight to Froch. I'm going to go with Kovalev UD but wouldn't be surprised to see him stop Froch.

    Frochs never been stopped, and he's no Cleverley.

    Why are we even discussing a career SMW fighting at 175, because he's betean everybody at 168 and the one question mark is a no show due to contractual probs and home advantage ?

    Just another ****in hater.

    Well Froch has technically cleaned out 168 apart from Ward who Froch wants no part of in a rematch.

    I was asking a hypothetical question, if Froch moved up.

    Calzaghes resume consists of an unproven nobody called Lacy, an over the hill BHop and a shot to **** Jones.

    Frochs consists of fighting and beating most of the best in the division at their best.
