    Default If Adonis Stevenson fought Froch before Dawson...

    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.

    Not sure what it is about these Haitians. They seem to be able to jump back and forth from 168/175 with little effort. Pascal was like that. I was hoping Carl would have called him out. He's got nothing to do and could duplicate Calzaghe in the process.

    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 Stevenson

    Stevenson is a monster puncher at lightheavy and I do not think froch could take those power punches.

    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?

    I would not say Froch would struggle I would say he loses.

    Froch would prefer to win a title at a 2nd weight rather than fight De Gale or Groves. It would enhance his legacy.

    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.
