carl froch isn't exactly the floyd mayweather of the super middle weight division either JCC jr's chin is better too.
Against much smaller men. He's never fought someone who hits as hard as Froch. Outside of that brief Golovkin sparring session, probably never sparred with some who can really crack him.
This is the big question mark. Froch might have an iron chin, but does he have an iron liver? Groves biggest failing that I saw was he had no plan at all for getting to the body.
Chavez's greatness as a body shot artist is extremely overstated as well. Who was the last person he actually stopped with body work? Zbik, Vera, and Rubio stood in front of him all night largely undeterred despite his "hellacious" liver shots.
Chavez hasn't even fought a legit supermiddleweight yet, let alone a huge one like Froch. I like Froch in this one by Demolition. He can box the **** out of Chavez AND crush him toe-to-toe.
Oh I agree I got froch wining this but Chavez body punching is a concern. He won't be heading hunting lik groves he will make a committed attack on froch s body. Froch needs to go into the fight prepared for this.
I think if Froch was able to walk through Bute's legitimate 168 body shots he'll do fine against Chavez.
Chavez Jr vs someone a little more his size. It would be a brutal fight. DeGale should do what Groves should've done and let Froch get his Vegas PPV money fight before defending that IBF belt. Froch's "last fight in the UK" coming off a big win in the U.S. would be a bigger fight for DeGale than he would get straight away, imo.
Librado Andrade's durability was legit. Bute took out that badass Mexican with a body shot in the rematch.
