    It would be some tear up though. Both guys are tough as nails.

    Collin's was a solid champion who fought the best. He's rated higher than Froch on the basis of being a dual WBO champion. He had an excellent run in the early 1990's.

    Collins easily more talented overallm though a fight between the two would have been gruelling.

    Dual WBO champion back then meant **** all! Beat washed up versions of Eubank and Benn, what else did he actually do?

    I'd say that would have been a tough one to call if they were around the same era. Froch has decent power and stamina. They both had good chins. I'm not sure about the skill department though. I think it would have had the ingredients of a classic.

    Chris Eubank was not washed up vs Steve Collins, but mentally he was'nt the same fighter like when he fought Nigel Benn.

    Eubank could of ended the fight in the 10th round of the first Collins fight, but eased off Steve Collins.......for one whole round.

    Collins was in my opinion, better than Froch...better chin then just about anyone as well.

    Collins was the same age as Benn and older than Eubank, and beat both of them twice...he was better than both of them...he did as much as either of them...and neither could beat him despite both trying twice....lol what did either Benn or Eubank do that would make them better than someone neither man could beat?
