What if Froch challenged Kovalev?

[Gandalf]

I don't see how Froch could beat Kovalev. Froch has a lot of heart, but he eats punches for breakfast and I don't see how he could withstand it after all the wear and tear he has been through. Froch's only chance is to land a hail Mary, but Froch is not really a KO puncher. Kovalev is the all round package in that he can fight technically, but still has that thudding power. Pascal came back well, but maybe that was because Kovalev thought he was done and didn't expect Pascal to be quite that resilient. But then he adjusted a s smart fighter will. Froch has so many flaws and typically finds a way to win, but he has a hard time against technical fighters and if Froch cannot dent Kovalev then he is either going to lose on points or get hurt.

haha. is this a joke? this fight wouldnt even be close. froch has a good chin but he does not last the distance. pascal has a better chin than froch and look what happened to him. froch is too easy to time. even a kessler who was way past his prime gave froch a lot of trouble. also, groves basically pressured him and made him uncomfortable and could have easily won the first fight if it werent for the fact that he couldnt sustain the pressure because he isnt a top fighter like kovalev. watch the beginning of the first froch and groves fight and thats how a fight with kovalev would be except that froch isnt getting up from the big punch that kovalev lands.

Froch is easy hit . he wouldn't last 3 rounds with Kovalev.
