Was a young Robin Reid better than George Groves?

[ross]

Can't remember Joe and Froch saying that and I am sure Ottke was a slip.

Ottke wasnt a slip. Watch it.

Froch saying Reid is the hardest puncher hes ever faced and this was after the first Groves fight.

MH Grill: Carl Froch :: Men's Health

He said the hardest puncher he faced was Arthur Abrahams and the hardest he had been hit was Reid big difference. Froch was probably not taking Reid not seriously as he was old but with AA he did not allow himself to get hit.

Its there n black and white. The hardest hes ever been hit is by Reid.

Hes saying on paper Abraham was a big puncher but the reality was that Reid hit him harder than anyone else including Groves apparently.

Breath it in, ahhh...

Read it and understand. Reid hit him the hardest but that does not mean he is the hardest puncher he has faced there is a difference.

Ok, Reid was the most effective and hardest puncher actually being able to catch Froch where Abraham couldnt. If YOU re read he actually says he has no idea how how hard Abraham hits because Abraham couldnt touch him. He said Abraham was the biggest puncher on papaer not in reality. Dont forget Abraham was a puncher against middleweights whereas a past it 37 year old Reid actually hit Froch harder than anyone else and this includes Kessler and Groves.

"The hardest hitter is probably the guy who didn’t hit me, Arthur Abraham. His record said he was the hardest hitter but I can’t say whether he was or not. When I fought him he never landed any punches, I made him miss. Robin Reid hit me with the hardest punch I’ve ever been hit with."

Its there, for some reason you are choosing to interperet it as so ething else. Reid was a good puncher.
