    I think Barkley is underrated. A prime Barkley would hurt prime Froch like Taylor did but Barkley has the skills, chin and confidence to finish the job. A mid round stoppage for Barkley after a back and forth war.

    I think Barkley, but Froch was underrated also. It would be a heck of a fight. Very close.

    This is a match up that's very dangerous for Froch .The way he fight s ,Barkley would love that .A chance to get In close and really test Carl's chin. I actually see Froch hitting the canvas fairly early ,hed be really shaken up .Iran could really wallop .But I believe Carl's the better all round fighter at top level and he'd survive the KD s to come back and stop Iran .Perhaps on cut's ,around the 9 th

    Barkley would be willing but Froch would make him eat humble pie, good sir.

    I think when you look at his fight with Glen Johnson, this is not going too well for Froch. Barkley would put on even more pressure.
