What would have happened? This fight was suppose to happen before the Dawson fight, but Stevenson got the opportunity to fight Dawson and did the right thing. Imagine if Froch fought Stevenson though, that would have been a fight to remember.

That could have been an epic brawl, really and I think that the first one to impose his will would have won this one.Quote:

Naive of me to think that Stevenson might actually make his optional count for something. If he inks Fonfara, I'm going to have a hard time not cheering for the upset. Not sure what Carl has left but I'd still like to see the fight. I'm actually hoping there might be a chance.
Adonis would have beaten Froch at light heavy but lost at super middle.
You can't make that statement Froch has never been to 175, Froch is bigger than StevensonQuote:

Groves first round? He got up and recovered...
And you can tell in the rematch that he didn't take the first fight seriously as it was a completely different fight.Quote:

Let's not forget that froch sprinted into a prime tyson (groves) most powerful punch ever with open arms and got up and took the rest.
Froch let's not forget doesn't get discouraged by power or speed, he just finds a way unless he can't be arsed like when he lost.
Going by the workrate difference I'd say froch wares him down and finishes him late whilst ahead on cards in Canada
Froch is courageous but he could not beat Adonis or Kovalev.
Fonfora was getting the best of Stevenson and eve had him on the floor, why would Froch struggle?Quote:

Why he's not trying to do that is stressful and why he's not wanting to rematch ward is annoying. Those are legacy fights, no bloody Chavez Jnr. He's still capable of good performances, I wish he would try for those fights.Quote:
