He is faster and bigger. Froch struggles with speed. Dirrell, Ward both hit Froch reguarly. Pascal also caused him allot of trouble. I still think Froch wins but I don't think he does a Bute job on him.
Froch struggles with good head movement, more so foot speed and angles, being turned over and then starts jumping in with one shot at a time. Clev stands in front of people he fights, trading shots and looking to get close to 75 / 100 punches a round. Basically playing right into Frochs strengths. He doesnt have the power to make Froch think a split second longer about closing the distance. Clev would try to box and move and surprise people for a round or two. Then he will get tagged with something and start to trade and thats game over. Only my opinion of course
Offering fights to Hopkins and Froch suggests that Frank wants big fights for Cleverly. Settling on the opponent they have suggests they have no intention of fighting an elite fighter. Frank is just using Bellew, Froch, Hopkins etc. to build up a reputation for Cleverly. I don't know what the contracts are laced with but these offers will be nowhere near as straight forward as Frank has made out.
i expect they would demand boxnation TV rights which would make no sense for Froch and I doubt Hopkins would be too keen on it
Lets face it he didnt go life and death with Murat, Murat is probably his standout performance so far in his career And Tony Bellew, fit, injury free, fighting for a world title in Liverpool would of caught many cold and rolled them over, but Cleverly stood firm and performed honourably The kid deserves kudos as well as criticism
