    I'm not saying he doesn't have one..i haven't seen much of froch, a few fights..but not his entire career yet everyone points out what an 'iron" chin he has but who is a big puncher he's fought that his proved this?

    Froch can bang but he cant take a punch or box that slick.

    He's exciting but will fall to the first good boxer he meets.

    I just get this impression with him, after all if he were "that good" he wouldn't be still fighting nobody's at his age.

    His fight in december will be the best opponent thus far and answer a few questions.

    Don't know as I don't know much about Pascal but if froch were the real deal he'd have had bigger fights before now.

    He's been trying to get good fights for ages. Inkin has blown him out a few times for instance.

    As for the original question, the guy doesnt have a great defence and has been nailed several times. So far no one has made him blink let alone wobble. Its pretty certain he has a very good if not great chin.

    Froch should be able to take Pascal easily, if he is half as good as he claims he is. I am not that impressed with Pascal.

    Pascal has been talking big, then backing out of fights. Pascal was suppose to fight Edison Miranda, the fight never happend, Pascal wouldn't take the fight. Pascal backed out of fighting Zuniga. He hasn't fought anyone yet. But has backed out of two big fights.

    Damn Froch is vastly overrated here on ESB, I am not impressed at all by his basic skills, he is slow, fights with hands low and does not have good stamina.

    If Pascal is in the shape of his life, he can beat him , but at the same time Pascal showed a shaky chin, has a history of injuries and I don't think that his chin would hold up 12 rounds. Pascal last time was wide in his shots and got caught by Omar Pittman. One thing is sure, when Froch will face a true elite, he will fail.

    Pascal watched Miranda KO Banks in Quebec, then he didn't want the fight any more.

    HTF Pascal is rated is ranked so high by the ABC organizations I can't figure out. He hasn't beat anyone , and has refused to fight anyone good.

    Whatever anyone says about Carl Froch he`s NOT an overrated,hyped up bum.The Pascal fight could be the making of him or the breaking of him.Even if he loses he`ll carry on though.

    Your right, regardless of location Pascal did not want that to take that fight. Miranda would fight anyone, he is not one to duck fights. Pascal pulled out of fighting Zuniga to get a title shot. But HTF did he got a title shot, I don''t know? He hasn't even fought anyone, much less beat anyone .

    I didn't know everyone had been saying he has an iron chin?

    Really everyone, or just a handful of hardcore Froch fans?
