    You have a resistance to well grounded arguments, don´t you?
    Talking to you reminds me of that:

    Posting silly cartoons doesn't hide the fact that if you get hit, doesn't mean you're hurt.

    On your ''well grounded'' argument basis, a toddler could land a 3 shot combo on Mayweather, you can replay it, and claim Mayweather was brutally hurt.

    Fact is, Froch stated neither Taylor or Dirrell hurt him, and he admitted Kessler did, so that ends the debate.

    Did Kessler break Froch's nose in the 8th?

    None of dirrells shots were hurting froch he took alot more better shots against kessler and still kept waving him in.

    Gorilla is a legend.

    I can count at least one occasion where Dirrell managed to stun Froch. Which of course is no shame seeing as though Dirrell does have a bit of pop in his punches when lets go. No one here is suggesting that Froch isn't tough. We're just merely counting on our fingers the times he's shown he's been hurt. And I personally can only recall 2 fights (Taylor and Dirrell), which is really impressive. Dude is as tough as nails

    what people aren't talking about is froch's resume in a short space of time. pascal, taylor, dirrell, kessler and next abraham. how ****ing impressive is that?

    Great chin my ass! The only reason people agree to that is becasue the Showtime commentators were so adament about it in his fight with Jermain taylor, but I see evidence to the contrary. The man doesn't seem to be too hard to hurt at all.

    I don't think he has ever been hurt to point where he was on the verge of being knocked out. Given the amount of punishment he takes I think it's safe to say that he has a very good chin.

    which is why you got to land so many punches, and he still doesn't get knocked out. ali was hurt numerous times, but guess what, he had one of the best chins in boxing.

    do you know what a bad chin actually means?

    He has I think.

    I remember him staggering back to the corner at the end of one of the rounds against Pascal. Can't remember the details but I'm sure it happened.

    Against Taylor it was more than a flash knockdown, could see in his face he looked shaken by it.

    Dirrell was a pretty obvious one, he did a chicken dance. Think it was an equilibirum thing more than anything because he recovered so quick.

    He said Kessler's bodyshots hurt and that right hand that caught him square had him backpedalling, Kessler didn't really take advantage.


    He might be relatively easy to hurt but he's damn hard to finish. Nobody really came close to stopping him on any occasion so that says a lot.

    i don't think you guys know what the **** you're talking about. bad chins means you get hurt ( knocked out) by every decent punch that lands. now do you think that goes for froch? if so, then you're blind as a bat not to realise froch has a very bad defense so a lot of punches land on his chin, yet he hasn't been knocked, which tells me one thing, he can take a punch.

    if i'm landing a hundreds of blows clean on your chin, then regardless of how good your chin is eventually you're going to get hurt. why? because they're only damn humans for ****s sake.

    I didn't say he had a bad chin, numbnuts. What I'm saying is that his ability to take a punch isn't as good as some of you noob fans think that are simplying going by what other people are telling you and not by what the evidence shows. At best, I think his chin is average.
