Carl Froch v Nigel Benn

Froch by KO, his superior chin would be the difference in a fight of the year contender

 

Certainly wouldn't bet against this.

It would be a war!

I also give the advantage of Chin to Froch.

Defence I would say they are both on a par. And power is similar too.

 

Benn was hit a lot harder than what Froch would. After Eubank and McClellan, Froch wouldn't have earned his respect in my opinion.

 

Another undefeated British World Champion SMW who loses in every fantasy match up will ever put him in...gee that's original.

 

Yeah, I've been waiting for the 'David Haye Vs Muhammad Ali/George Foreman/Joe Frazier/Larry Holmes/King Kong' threads

 

We're gonna have to agree to disagree. Because for me Froch hits very very hard. I would say there or thereabouts with mclellan. And trust me Benn respected Mclellans power (the ref's count on the first knockdown was comical).

 

benn would knock the **** out of froch,ko inside 4.

 

Never gonna happen.

 

Is this thread created every month ?

I was reading the same crud the other day on this very board ... except the other nerd put a poll on it.

 

after mclellen,froch would win. before that,and way before that,no

 

Aslong as Benn doesnt gas himself Benn points or late TKO.

 

Benn, by stoppage in a good fight.

Whatever Froch does well, Benn does better, and he doesn't have the glaring weaknesses that Carl has - such as been wide open to a right hand over the top.

 

Benn KO4, Froch is a one dimensional plodder.

 

I cant stand Froch. I hate saying this about British fighters as I tend to support all of them but I cant wait until someone decent exposes him and all this bull**** gets put to bed. Mind you Dirrell actually already managed it.

 

Froch doesn't have a better chin than Benn - who I rank in the Tommy Hearns category..... i.e. KO'd by big hitters (Hagler) or on accumulation (Leonard).

Carl isn't glass jawed by any means, far from it...... but his beard isn't any better than Ricky Hatton's pre-Mayweather, IMO.
