Bernard Hopkins v Carl Froch. Who wins?

Hopkins by a wide decision.

 

Hopkins by UD.

 

I've actually wanted to see this fight for a few years. Hopkins' skill and boxing IQ vs Froch's strength and stamina. I'll still go with Froch by TKO because Hopkins is too old but it's tough to say because Hopkins keeps defying the odds, has a great defense and chin.
The reason I say Froch is because I think Hopkins doesn't want any of Froch. That's why he's never called him out or anything (as far as I know). Hopkins knows he's technically much better than Froch so if he wasn't afraid of Froch's physical and mental strength I think he would have called him out and we all know Froch ducks no one.

 

Have hopkins by UD judging by Carls performance tonight. Carl is most effective coming in and mauling but hopkins is too wiley for that.

 

Froch beats this version of Hopkins by late stoppage.

Bernard wouldn't be able to keep up with him. he'd eventually take a vicious beating.

 

Froch by MD/ SD. Similar fight to the Calzaghe one, when Joe fought prime Bernard.

 

Froch might get a TKO here late because Hopkins is nearly 50, has slowed down and probably doesnt have the power to keep Froch at bay.

 

Lmfao, Calzaghe didn't fight a prime Bernard. Get outta here

 

Yeah because Hopkins has shown himself to be completely shot in the fights that followed against Pavlik and Pascal. atsch

:-(

 

When has anyone looked good against Bhop?

Like ever

If roy couldn't
Slappy couldn't

I don't see froch being able to

Hopkins close ud

 

Any version of Hopkins gets schooled by Super Joe :yep
