UD loss to Collins in a very gruelling fight. UD loss to Eubank, I think Eubank does everything better than Froch and is tougher IMO. Against Benn I'm not sure at one point I can see Froch surviving some early scares to stop Benn late, yet on the other hand I can see Benn dragging Froch into a war and stopping him because if there is one fighter who has the power to stop Froch it's Nige.
UD Win over Collins. Collins style was tailormade for Eubank and Benn. Froch however, will be able to do him. UD Win over Eubank. Eubank was overrated imo, he's considered great when really, if he boxed today, even though he'd be top 10 I'd have him firmly behind Froch, Kessler, Ward and possibly even Chavez Jr. TKO Win over Benn. Nigel Benn has a GLASS heart. He often quit like a ***** when the going got tough and the same would be true here. He doesn't have the heart for big fights.
Froch would have no chance v Collins,he was too tough and too wily,Froch would beat the others by decision.
Froch is too big for these guys....certainly for Benn and prob for Eubank too and only perhaps Steve is maybe big enough for Froch...
Very slim chance against any. Eubank boxes his ears off, Benn knocks his head off and Collins outfoxes him.
Froch too big? He is very rarely above fight weight. Collins was a big guy, and Eubank was a huge super-middle - somewhere between light-heavy and cruiser but starving himself to make super-middle.
Beats Benn, Could go either way against Collins, Loses on points to Eubank. Eubank is probably the toughest British boxer ever. Just watch him fight Carl Thompson at Cruiserweight and soak up them shots, amazing!
any more verdicts I think froch beats all of them as look how much eubank struggled with ray close & rockygianni who froch would of dealt with and froch wud of stopped henry warton who benn had a good fight with. Collins froch would of been a great war but froch would win a decision imo froch is 6'1 with a 77inch reach I think ppl forget hes quite a big guy where as benn an eubank were jr middles and middleweights b4 moving up to supermiddle :bbb
jesus froch beats groves and now he some sort messiah of the super middleweight division. eubank would out box froch and beat him on points, also eubank was a extremely tough man and would be able to cope with what froch brings. steve collins against froch would be the closest fight, as it would be a war of attrition. but steve poses better boxing skills and will also out tough froch. and as for nigel against froch, glass heart are you kidding me?? watch benn v mcclellan!. froch claims to be a warrior, nigel never self proclaimed this status he was one. there is no way froch would win a tear up/gun slinging match with benn. benn is too quick and too powerful, hes over hand right would land all night. i think he stops froch in about 6-9 rounds. and another name to throw in Michael Watson would have boxed and humilated froch to a comfortable points decision. lets not over rate froch here - he has not beat anyway in the same class as the 4 above.
Eubank didn't struggle with Close in the first fight. It couldn't have been more comfortable, effortless and lazy. He boxed out of his skin against Rocchigiani, who would outsize, outreach and outtime Froch. Look what Rocchigiani did to far superior fighters to Froch in Maske and Michalczewski - dominated them and controversially robbed. It appears that you are an alt account of the lephood(sp?) guy...
Froch is ripped to the bone though, bulldog. Very disciplined diet, lifestyle etc there. Eubank was not overly keen on the hard grind of training etc, hence his bulkier appearance. Froch is bigger. As pointed out he is 6'1" with 77" reach. Simply a much bigger man, that's all. Pound for pound he may not be better, but as he is he beats up the smaller men IMO.
I like froch but eubank beats him, Collins beats him IMO , and benn if given the opportunities for right hands that groves was puts him to sleep! That said if froch tags benn like groves it's good nite
Froch is a tall guy, but not a big guy. As a reference watch the Bute fight or even the kessler fight. Bute looked at least a division bigger.
Collins would be a close fight over the full distance, could go either way. Benn at his best would knock Froch out. Eubank at his best would knock Froch out.
