    Apathetic, those Froch opponents you named are all ordinary toilers who Eubank would have been widely criticised for fighting.The massively overrated and already possibly damaged goods taylor included.

    Go on then, explain how the fighters Eubank fought are better than the names I mentioned.

    I honestly think Froch would break his heart.

    Firsly, very distasteful comments from ApatheticLeader.


    I see Eubank picking up the first 5-6 rounds with his awkward style, lateral movement and reflexes (and terrific stiff jab and tremendous sneak right), and counter-punching his way to atleast another couple in the bag.

    Watson, Malinga, Thornton, Holmes and Rocchigiani were all very, very skilful. Nigel Benn was incredible. Wharton was highly impressive offensively at his best back then.

    Everybody knows I give Eubank alot of flack but..... he'd have outclassed Froch.

    The 90's crop of middles/supermiddles was simply alot higher class then the current version.

    Froch would lose to Eubank, Watson, Benn, and Graham.
