    Battle of the perennially annoyed boxers.

    The one feeling he's being disrespected the most wins.

    Do it.

    Kovalev struggles making 175, Froch thinks he could make 164 if pushed.

    Too big of a gap.

    froch wouldn't ever belong anywhere near a ring with kovalev. total mismatch and that isn't even taking the size difference into account.

    I think froch should take his $$$ fight with Chavez jr then retire or rematch Chavez to try to avenge the defeat unless it was too brutal which is very possible

    Kovalev would destroy Froch easily.

    He does, had to sauna it off for Agnew and starve it out for Pascal.

    I like both fighters, but Kovalev makes Froch do the English Country Dance at Wembley

    I think Froch has enough pop and workrate to stop Kovalev just coming forwards willy nilly.
    Not as one sided as people think imo.

    Froch has more skill and a longer reach than both of them.

    I can see them all out trading with each other as early as the second round and obviously Kovalev is the bigger man with the bigger gun.

    Froch won't entertain the idea of fighting anyone but a fat Mexican.

    And no, he isn't more skilled than Kovalev.

    This goes 12. Hard to call, Kovalev 7-5 maybe.

    It's the way you read it, I was saying Froch had more skill than Pascal, and a longer reach than both of them.

    Would be Kovalevs hardest fight to date, with Froch's chin and heart anyone ruling him out is a fool. I favour Kov 60-40
