    Would of been a great fight

    IMO Eubank wins by late KO or on pts

    I don't like the cunt but Froch all day long. Points all over it, Froch work rate better than Eubank. Remove the obligatory extra credit Eubank gets for being from the 90's, which of course was better than the 00's or 10's or whatever the fuck you call them and it's a pretty straight forward affair. Froch too big, too hard, too busy. Froch points.
    When God said to the both of us "Which one of you wants to be Sugar Ray?" I guess I didnt raise my hand fast enough

    Regarding Froch being "too hard" for Eubank, I'd cite below as evidence otherwise:

    Eubank coming off the floor late in the fight having being broken down systematically to then stop Watson
    Steve Collins telling Eubank to his face that Eubank was tougher than him. (round the table supermiddleweight chat hosted by Johnny Nelson)
    Having his swollen eye cut to continue facing Carl Thompson in the first fight

    I must be the only one who thinks it’s not a good style match up. Of course, both were tough, but I don’t think it would be a war. Snr. Only had wars when he had to. Let’s not forget , he was in a few dud fights where he was posturing more than Boxing. Once he actually got in the ring , I used to think that was the end of the show, he was pretty boring. Effective, but boring.
    I don’t think Snr. Was the greatest actual Boxer, but I think Froch would’ve made him look it. I think there is a difference in class and I would have it to Eubank on a comfortable (but boring) points win.
    And if by chance Froch was good enough to make it a war, I would still have Eubank on points, but closer.

    I think both their macho egos would have guaranteed a war, sooner or later they'd have started to trade as it's in their nature to do so (neither man was good enough a boxer to outclass the other)
    Froch' s size wouldn't come into it either, at the very tail end of a hard career Eubank more than held his own against a rock hard Cruiserweight in Carl Thompson over 2 fights one of which he fought 4-5 rounds with one eye.

    Add to that Eubank gave Calzaghe his hardest ever fight at Super middleweight.
    Calzaghe has been quoted loads of times admitting this.

    Granted Eubank is a hard man but Joe just gassed out which is why it was a hard fight for him. Joe was inexperienced.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
