    Froch lands a right hand straight down the pipe? i believe the only way he can win is if he can take Froch's punch, and even then theres a question mark on him not gassing over 12 rounds. Im impressed by Dirrels hand speed, but his power doesnt look enough to trouble Froch. Im not bashing Dirrel, i just want some thoughts on him taking Froch's punch because if he cant i dont see anyway he can win personally. If he beats Froch i will be giving him massive credit, and if Froch beats him i will be giving him massive credit too after the way many have said Dirrel will take him to school. I just have a feeling Froch is going to TKO him late.:hey:good

    At the elite level Froch needs to use his durability and power to win fights. Take them into the trenches and make em suffer. That poor slick **** won't work. Hopefully he learns from the Taylor experience and puts it on em earlier in the fight.

    This is what i keep saying about dirrell. He's just a slickster, but with no real fight in him. He can't just pot shot and run against andy capp all night. Sooner or later he'll have to get set, and then that's where carl will take over.

    erm......picture the legs on a baby giraffe immediately following it's birth. Dirrell won't be able to run all night, the giraffe is getting KTFO.

    You said Bonsu was undefeated in another thread. Which leads me to believe your knowledge amounts to **** all.

    Taylor has better timing and a better jab than Dirrel and he got TKO'd. Pascal has much better head movement than Dirrel and he got hit alot and beaten. HOW ABOUT THAT :hat

    Who says Dirrell hasnt got a chin and who says Froch will take the punnishment he'll get from Dirrell anyway? Dirrell impressively destroyed Oganov and Hanshaw, Froch is very easy to hit and Dirrell will land his money punches on Froch

    This is certainly a step up for Dirrell but I think he'll pull it off, he's the better boxer with the faster hands and better defense.

    Are you ****ing serious?

    Taylor is technically flawed and Dirrell has a much better jab than Taylor, and Taylor himself looks clumsy at times.

    It's a very interesting bout that could swing either way. I'm leaning towards Dirrell picking up the WBC title with a narrow UD.

    Taylor has been in with the best and proven himself on many occasions. WHO the **** has Dirrel ever fought? Oganaov was a ****ing walking punch bag ffs. Anybody with decent speed will look flashy against him. If you think Dirrel will win fair enough, but at least be realistic about it. Im sure at times Dirrel will give Froch fits, but Froch will wear the guy down.:cool:
