All i have to say is the longer JC leaves this fight the harder it would get for him. Froch is growing stronger and stronger each fight and some people would say he is hitting the stage called his prime. If JC came on full prepared and was throwing combos etc, he would beat Carl. But if JC took this lightly at all Carl would punish him and thats where he is the best, he is looking good in the fights and i really feel he would be one of the toughest fights JC could take at this stage. The longer JC leaves the fight the more im going to favour Froch.
