Carl Froch picks Tyson Fury to beat Anthony Joshua on points
Froch called the fight close but said Joshua will "really struggle" against a Fury who boxes and moves. He warned that both men have slowed down.
Carl Froch is picking Tyson Fury to beat Anthony Joshua on points in Cardiff on 11 December.
"So this fight's close, but I'm picking Tyson Fury on a points win," Froch told The Ring. "I think Anthony Joshua is going to really struggle against somebody who can box and move and throw the jab and get off to the side, no straight lines, and put combination punches together. And that was the old Tyson Fury."
He warned that both men have changed. "He's slowed down. They both slowed down. The last thing to go in a professional fight is the power," he said.
