    Based on the film, my head says Froch. I really want to go with Corbett, tho.

    Corbett would punish carl in a 19th century ring, but probably not stop him. Froch would need to relearn how to box in order to stand a chance.

    froch can SD him in modern times. A lot depends on what you mean by modern setting - if Corbett has chance to learn about modern boxing, which has to be tru if you put in the 21st century, then he has the upper hand.
