Im not sure how same age as Froch Stevenson who has beaten a bunch of not very good to decent fighters is a young shark circling him. Also I cant remember Ward beating down Froch in there first fight although Ward is better than Froch, just too silky for Froch's style
Well if you can't remember Froch being beaten down by Ward you didn't watch the fight, he may not have knocked him down like Groves but he stood in front of him for 12 rounds winning virtually everyone of them. That to me is a beat down, don't know what your definition of one is. Sharks ( Plural ) doesn't mean Stevenson specifically, I'm referring to Groves, DeGale, maybe GGG if he were to step up and fight Froch. He showed significant signs of aging against Groves, I don't think his style of fighting is healthy if his reflexes are gone. Can see why he wants a Vegas payday though...
No I did watch the fight. All 12 rounds and had Ward as the winner, clear as day. I had it by around 6 rounds, 2 judges had it by 2 and 1 by 8.
For me Froch would beat Stevenson. The punches he took off Groves without being rocked would KO anyone else, groves he beat al be it in weird circumstances, De Gale doesn't even deserve to be on a Froch undercard these days. As for GGG that would be worth seeing but I don't think he could take the shots. Froch may be slowing but as long as he can take shots the way he can he will beat good fighters, saying that for his own health he doesn't need to be fighting to long if he is getting hit in the head a lot
We have all seen Rocky we know what happens ;)
