Froch opponent announced: Yusef Mack

[shza]

Definitely a super-easy timekeeping fight. He certainly deserves to take one of these, though I would have preferred Pavlik (which I also view as totally noncompetitive but that one would at least be slightly interesting).

War Philadelphia. War Mack. Realistically, however, Froch takes this one with ease.

First thing that came to mind was putting ketchup packets into a blender Froch by demolition.

I won't be surprised if Mack is ahead on the cards when Froch stops him.

Yes the kid can box, he just can't sustain it against the best. Man he has gotten some big fights too, Cloud, Johnson, now Froch. He must have great management. His manager or promoter or whomever used to post on here too.

Good for Mack I say, it ought to be a very good pay day and he is talented so who knows, maybe he scores a major major upset. Stranger things have happened in boxing.

On paper it appears to be a near blow out though.

[Master]

I am sure we have Mack's manager/trainer on here some times. Mack is a reasonable fighter, not in Froch class but will give it a go.

[THE PHILOSOPHER]

I won't be surprised if Mack is ahead on the cards when Froch stops him.

HAHAHAHAHA Give up!

Carl Froch is probably my favourite fighter and I expect him to catch up to Mack at some point and stop him (probably in the mid/late rounds when Mack starts to slow), but Mack has shown some slick boxing skills and Froch is hardly Pernell Whitaker. IMO, Mack takes the early rounds and makes Froch look bad until Froch's pressure wears him down and Mack gasses like usual.

[Dropanuke]

If froch can catch him that is, look at how hard it was for andarade in the early rounds.

[El Kabong]

Quite an easy fight for Carl, although I guess he deserves one. Think he'll ever fight Cleverly?

i hope so. it would be big around britain

do you think he will?

Froch - Cleverly wouldn't last 5 rounds. It would be an absolute slaughter.

[Dropanuke]

No chance! Froch has no business at that weight. He is a natural super mid weight. Cleverly should fight Hopkins etc but he wont because he won't travel like froch. Froch has nothing to prove at domestic level. Cleverly hasn't proved yet and fighting froch isn't the answer but granted would be a big scalp.
Calzaghe didn't give froch a chance so why should froch give cleverly a chance

i dont see the two as being related

if froch was offered enough money i am sure he would consider it

You are right as id get in the ring with prime Tyson bare fist if you gave me enough money. England vs Wales? What an odd thing to think.
Maybe cleverly should come down to 168? Oh I forgot he can't do it even though a 42 year old glen Johnson can?? That's what's odd
