Carl Froch has had plenty to say about one fighter.

Carl Froch has responded to Nigel Benn’s claim that he would keep ‘The Cobra’ down if they met during their respective careers, and he’s come out fighting.  

Benn was a world champion at 12st, the division Froch also won his world crown, and he defeated some huge names in his career including Iran Barkley and Gerald McClellan. 

In a recent interview, Benn appeared confident of his chances of beating Froch, but the Nottingham man is equally assured when offering his verdict on the clash of different eras.  

Froch travelled the world beating the likes of Arthur Abraham, Jermain Taylor, and Mikkel Kessler, and he believes it wouldn’t be an issue dealing with Benn. 

“You got done by Watson, you got done by Eubank, you got smoked twice by Collins, you were only 32,” said Froch on his YouTube channel 

“I was 36 nearly 37 jumping in with George Groves, 10 years my junior, and I put him on button moon. I’ve got bags of respect for you but let’s be realistic, I reckon I’ve got your number. “
