Froch but it would be violent because Brewer would be very willing to engage with him. Froch was far more durable and I don't think Brewer is the kind of fighter who would box rings round him - he isn't the kind of fignter Froch had trouble with. Great nickname battle as well. Enjoying the Froch appreciation threads at the moment.
As much as I like the Hatchet and am happy to see a thread that involves him, I have to go with Froch in a very physical tough fight. Froch simply was a better fighter all around. Brewer was good though. I wonder what he is up to these days? He was in some good fights and always gave a great effort.
I saw a recent interview with him. He’s running a salon with his wife and he’s also training his son who’s recently turned pro. I liked Brewer a lot. Such a fun fighter.
I’ve been meaning to watch them again soon. The first one I felt he won clear but Ottke did better in the re-match. Probably not enough still. I felt Calzaghe’s most entertaining fight was with Brewer. I loved that fight.
I haven't watched those fights in awhile. I remember thinking the first one could have gone either way but I'm pretty sure I had Ottke winning the 2nd one by a couple if rounds. Definitely close fights. Ottke is such a strange fighter to me. His amauter resume is crazy good with wins over Tarver, Gomez, Moorer, Erdei but so many of his pro fights were close.
