    Inspired by their interview on Froch On Fighting, it got me thinking, who would win?

    Certainly, both men have heart in spades!

    Both also held the IBF Super-Middleweight belt and both have also faced some of the best their generation have to offer; Andre Ward, Mikkel Kessler, 'Canelo' Alvarez and David Benavidez, to name but a few!

    Froch. Takes a bigger punch.

    Froch undoubtedly wins by stoppage.

    I reckon it would look similar to Froch Bute

    Froch by decision or late stoppage. He fought and won against alot of excellent fighters. He is much more proven than Plant.

    No. Bute was a pretender in a way that Plant never was.

    Plant is superior to Groves and he was competitive against Benavidez, who was better at 168 than Froch.

    Plant would win most of the first 6 rounds and Froch would win most of the later rounds. I don't think Froch would do enough for a stoppage, but he might come close. Probably a SD or MD either way.

    A pretender that was champion for almost 5 years which is double the length of time that Plant was a champion.

    He wouldn’t have been a champ if that Andrade fight got stopped. He was also PEDed out for his reign.
