    A good fight. But I can only see it going one way and that's SK.

    To beat SK it would take a good inside fighter with speed that is able to pressure him.

    I doubt Froch wants to retire by being beaten to a pulp in front of a home town crowd.

    Froch is a warrior and a good fighter but he has absolutely no chance vs Kovalev.

    He doesn't struggle per se but it isn't easy. He runs on the beach(He lives down the street from m) even on his off days. I recall him saying in an interview that it was getting harder to shed weight now that he is older.

    It's come from his own mouth he is starting to struggle to make 175

    If Froch can't make 175, Hatton can always replace him. He's like 200 now, I trust he can make 175 with a few months training and draining.

    Great fight and a close one. Froch will go down once or maybe twice but its a 7-5 or 8-4 type fight.

    This but Froch is faded the fight would definitely be in Kovalevs favor. The size difference is a huge deal also. Froch does have the ability to win even with the odds heavily stacked and they would be.

    Froch is not even a big super middle so moving to175 to take on kovalev is a silly move that can only end in a KO loss for froch

    Froch is taller than Kovalev and has a higher reach. His frame is well above SMW. He could easily go as far as Cruiserweight if he wanted to.

    Froch comes in closer to 168 Kovalev comes in closer to 190 there's a big difference.
