    I think Froch probably wins a war of attrition.

    Hard to imagine Froch getting blown away by Benn so quickly and/or getting dropped by an old Duran.

    Crash,Bang,Wallop, they'll both be up/down like a pair of yoyo's so it's a pick-em for any round as it ai'nt going 12, but my pref is that Barclay win's in Hearns/Barclay 1, great scrap:smoke

    both are easy to hit so its close ,very good match-up i am not sure but it would be a great fight and a rematch would be called for

    Its also impossible to imagine Froch beating Hearns.

    It's also hard to imagine Barkley beating him! And I've seen that with my own eyes.

    Barkley wasn't really blown away by Benn. It was a close and controversial fight, could have easily gone the other way.

    As of now,I would say Barkley. Only because I know what he was capable of. I'll have too see Froch fight more class opposition before I could give any confident opinion either way.
