    i just saw a few Carl Froch fights, and i must say his style will give him a bit of a problem when he heads up with some quality fighters in the future ! he seems a bit arrogant in his boxing so a lot of people will probl cheer when he goes down.

    He hasnt fought a live oponent yet, so no wonder he is looking so powerful.

    Most people seemt o be looking past Pacal, including many people on esb, that could be a mistake.

    I wont lie ive never seen a Pascal fight but going by his record, its very similar to Froch's... this looks to be a 50-50 match.

    I think he will beat pascal!!! although it won't be easy!!! Kessler, bute and poss Taylor are a bit different as i need to see Froch face tougher opposition. I guess we will see what he is about Dec 6th.

    i imagine guys like Bika, Andrade, Bute, Kessler and Taylor would put him to sleep

    It doesn't matter how good your chin is if you get tagged repeatedly with big flush overhead rights, unless you really know how to roll with the punches. Eventually you do get hurt.

    i think carl froch will suprise alot of people this year, imo he is top 3 supers out there and the better the oppo will prove this.

    I could be wrong though :p

    I think he is the best fighter of his generation. I could be wrong though. He could be just another guy who looks great until he steps up. In fact, I think he's mediocre.

    His level of competition is pretty poor so we can't really say....Pascal will be a test,a live opponent.We will see how he does.

    Over the last several months Froch has called out Joe Calzaghe, Mikkel Kesser, Kelly Pavlik, and Jermain Taylor. He has done absolutely nothing to prove he deserves a fight with any of those guys. I think he will beat Pascal, but so what. Pascal is just an unproven prospect himself.

    Froch as WBC titlist right now is a joke. Taylor will be Froch's first mandatory. However, DiBella talks as if they will pass on a Froch fight in order to pursue a match-up with Calzaghe of Kessler. That's to bad. I would love to watch JT dismantle Froch. Afterward, instead of "Bad Intentions" we coud call him "The Mongoose!"

    i've seen pascal live, honestly, nothing much to him. WAYyyyyy too big for his britches. he has been training with a new trainer, and really hard apparently. but last i saw, he was a kid with some natural speed, not too much strength, very good defense, but a shoddy offense (which relies too much on outside speed).
