    Default Most Protected Fighters

    This has probably been hashed before...but who do you guys think are currently the most protected fighters? I bring this up because of my desire to see a live Chris John fight. He's a one hemisphere wonder!

    That behemoth Tye Fields immediately jumps to mind. KO'd in 1 by the "dangerous" Monte Barrett!

    Agree

    Anthony Mundine. Now not earlier in his career.
    The Petersons seem fairly protected.
    Valuev earlier in career.

    To be fair it's not Froch's fault. Fail to see how he's over-protected when he's only had 23 fights. It's not his fault opponents pull out on a regular basis.

    Yeah, that's what I thought ono.

    How can Froch be a protected fighter when no one will fight him? Taylors people (Lou Dibella) ADMITTED they'd sooner fight Lacy, not just for the money, because he's the EAISER option.

    Inkin has pulled out twice against him in the past year. Pretty sure Berrio accepted then changed his mind.

    I'm not much of a Froch fan, he seriously needs to land a fight, but protected fighter is - crap.
