Carl Froch believes Anthony Joshua would have been too big for David Haye if the pair would have ever come together for a heavyweight clash.
The Nottingham man, a former international amateur teammate of Haye, knows both boxers very well and he’s offered his verdict on how a potential clash between the two former world heavyweight champions would have played out.
Haye was approaching the final stages career and an iconic rivalry with Tony Bellew when Joshua became world champion.
There was constant speculation linking the pair to a fight and if Haye had been successful against Bellew, it was possible the fight could've been made. Froch has had his say in how things might have played out.
“I think AJ’s too big for him, but a prime David Haye is very good. Explosive power, fast, brave as you like. He may have got to Anthony Joshua and started catching him,” said Froch when speaking on YouTube channel.
“But AJ’s a big lump, and if you look at what AJ did to Klitschko – alright, Klitschko was 42 years old and had been sat on the sofa for 18 months and came out of retirement virtually – he still flattened him. He climbed off the canvas at Wembley Stadium in front of 79,000 people and got the win.”
