Froch has the handspeed advantage over him and obviously Carl is much younger, but I think Glen is stronger (physically and psychologically), he's got reach over him (74 1/2" to 75" according to boxrec), and I think the pressure Johnson brings to a fight is enough to take him over the top. Glen wouldn't mind fighting Froch in his back yard, it simply doesn't bother the guy, he fights even harder when he's the "away team".
Johnson's fighting style is unnerving to a lot of fighter, he doesn't foul, he isn't dirty, he is just scrappy, he does work that people don't like. Glen throws to the body a lot, he is constantly moving forward no matter what you hit him with, and whether the punch is blocked or you catch him clean he never waivers and he'll come back stronger and harder.....I just see that mentally breaking Froch.
Johnson would no doubt beat Jermain Taylor at any point in their careers, which is very sad for me to state because I always thought JT had "it" he had all the potential in the world but it just never picked up after the Hopkins win, it should have all been down hill for him after that.
