    today Hopkins would dominant Froch for 6 rounds and then start to tire, froch cant stop him but will batter him for the rest of the fight to scrape a SD.

    but primer hop would school him.

    lets be honest, anyone who is a fair boxer but more importantly who is tough enough to absorb bhops early outage and fit enough to outlast him after that, has a chance of scraping by him on points. What you don't want to do is try and school him early on and then fade later, unless you have elite skills of course, then you will rapidly be fcuked over by him. And by gods truth DO NOT take it easy on him with a slow pace, then you are well and truly shafted as he can fight all night like that at a superior level to you.

    This could go either way but I wont sit on the fence. I'll say Froch wins and it doesn't go the distance.

    Its a fight that Froch is best off leaving well alone. A win does nothing for him,and a loss would only embarass him unnecessarily, and would haunt him for the remainder of his career. :deal

    I think B. Hopkins has probably forgotten more stuff than C.Froch has ever learned.

    Hopkins will lure him into a game of chess, and that would not be in Frochs best interests:deal

    Like I said, stay away from this fight Froch, unless there is no way out. Its a fight that has "booby trap" written all over it:deal

    I don't know that it would be easy, but I'd be leaning towards Hopkins myself, especially if the fight were in Vegas as opposed to the UK.
