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
