    Henry it appeared had a Froch like chin, and perhaps a better Left Hook, a sizzling punch, but that was it apart from the determination of course, his delivery technique was slower and cruder, so if you were an adept mover with some serious sting to your punches, you could lead Henry a frustrating chase and keep a step and a half ahead, Nigel Benn did it and so did Robin Reid
    i cant help but think that George will not be so at risk from longer or mid-range as he was against Car, Henry will have to get close..and stay close to find a home for that Left Hook, I dont think he does it, and loses again in a brave chasing effort against a more versatile opponent. Let Henry tee-off on you and you are asking for trouble, but stick to the sensible game plan and Henry is much defused. George on Points
