    This would be a war & a great match up.. I think a lot of people would write Carl's chances of here but durable as fk & got stronger as fights went on.. I think he could take Beterbiev deep because their styles gel really well.. close fight or one sided , how do u see it going?

    Beterbiev too much skill, size and physicality for Froch. Carl liked being the stronger man in there. He won't be against Beterbiev.

    It wouldn't be a war. It would be a one-sided ass whooping.

    Not a good match up as Froch loses most his assets by moving up.

    Hard to see anything other than a Beterbiev win; Artur just too big, too strong, hehe! But what is most interesting about this match-up IMO is whether Artur could actually stop the teak-tough Froch?

    The Cobra is as tough as they come, but could he cope with the sheer strength and body work of the Biev - I have my doubts, with a late TKO for Beterbiev with the ref waving it off, but the Cobra still on his feet, but done!

    I'd never write Froch off. If anyone has the chin to hold up to Beterbiev it'd be him, but id have to pick the bigger man.

    AB wins. He's slightly better in most departments plus bigger and more powerful . But think Froch lasts until the end.

    Froch has a chance if he can land a monster punch like he did with Groves. But it's an outside one.

    Frock would be crumbled. As much as he is tough, Frock would take one hell of a beating. He is simply too easy to hit.

    Froch is very tough and always turned up in top shape and gave his all in his fights but it’s hard to look past a Beterbiev win here especially at 175. Beterbiev is simply bigger,more powerful and a better boxer,question is though could Froch manage to go the distance or be another stoppage on Beterbievs record .

    Beterbiev would beat Froch to a pulp.

    Froch's pride and defensive vulnerabilities would keep him open and upright, at least for awhile.

    Groves dropped Froch. Beterbiev would wreck Froch and turn his mentality Into AJs.

    GGG takes Beterbiev's best shots.

    Froch the guy that avoided Golovkin? :lol: Yeah right move him 2 divisions up and Beterbiev will beat his ass like a drum until it caves in

    Froch is part Polish so he will probably up his game in a match up against Beterbiev
