Definitely no more than 6'1. And that's at max. I've always thought of Froch as a smallish super-middle. He doesn't look like the kind of guy who has to work super hard to make 168. In that Youtube interview he looks very slim and narrow shouldered compared to some super-middles out there.

If Williams can replicate the form - and quality jab - he showed against Lacy for four or five rounds then Froch (easy to hit with a jab) will be in trouble. Williams' recent performances, however, suggest that any such ambition or quality is long in the past and this guy's heading for an early stoppage defeat. This is the kind of fight Froch needs to look good in.

sorry mate - I have to disagree - Froch can take a punch - and in addition you have to be a lot quicker than him to get to him - the only time I have been really worried was when he fought Charles Adamu - I was going beside myself with worry that he was simply throwing that fight away - I honestly believe he will never be complacent again - and if he is - Williams is not the sort of fighter I believe can expose him - besides even though he boxed well against Lacy - I thought Lacy was vastly over rated!!!

I don't understand the problem with Williams as a last minute replacement, a lot of fights would have been called off. Credit to Rubin for taking the fight.
