    Froch is not a great fighter. Sure, he's good and accomplished a lot, but this is a guy who struggled mightily with a ****ing shot SMW Glen Johnson.

    However, he was very physical, very tough and hit hard. Hearns could go in on offence early, and land hard and get clipped like he was vs Barkley and Roldan. He could also box at range, picking his spots and jabbing from his size vantage. But again, I see Hearns doing something similar to what Kinchen did, but better. Froch was much better than James, and much stronger too. He'd be able to throw Hearns off him once he's hurt.

    Unless Froch is KOd first, I see him KOing Hearns.

    It certainly doesnt help Froch's case that he couldn't spell head movement if you spotted him every letter except the V.

    Froch too durable and strong and relentless.
