    Pavlik doesn't have any chances against a slick and skillfull Andre Dirrell. None. Terrible match up for Pavlik.

    Froch has been past his best for a while. I guess you havent seen him before he was a world champ?
    Froch is nearly 35. Most top SMWs are well past their best or retired at that time and Froch is past his best.
    Collins, Eubank, Benn all retired before they were Frochs age

    You think Froch is really that past it? He did fine against Ward and embarrassed abraham, and just smashed Bute. And I would pick him against Kess in the rematch.

    Yeah I do. Froch turned pro very late after a long amateur career. He didnt win his first world title till he was in his 30s.
    Watch him when he was younger and he had better faster movement, and a higher workrate.

    faster movement and higher workrate does not mean he is better? I think Prime is when I fighter is fighting at his best and he has been fighting better since he entered the world stage . . . and that came with experience

    He hasnt been fighting better at all and you obviously never saw him before he beat Pascal.
    Look how lazy Froch can be. Or do you think he was better losing to Kessler or Ward or being outboxed by Taylor or even taken to a MD by old SMW journeyman Johnson?

    Which fight were you watching? Dirrell spent most of the Froch fight flopping to the floor. As for the Abraham fight; he was gassing in the last quarter and looked for an easier way out.
