i see dirrel up on the scorecards in close fight, but froch breaks him down and gets a stoppage....i see froch's power and underrated skills eventually taking its toll on dirrel......i will say this i give dirrel much more of chance then i do andre ward....i was not impressed by ward's last weekends performance.....and he didnt look all that fast to me.... taylor presents stylistic problems for froch as we know, kessler, and even abraham....
froch's skills arent underrated and you know that as well as i do. but this fight will ask questions of dirrell as a complete fighter. hes certainly faster and more skilled than froch - but froch's win over taylor should never be seen as 'luck'. its actually a credit to froch's tenacity that he's in this tournament - and he deserves his place.
Why a nationalistic pedestal? I like Froch as a fighter and I am British but I think Kessler is equally good and Ward is maybe a smidgen behind. I think Froch will certainly beat Dirrell. If I'm wrong I'll be on here to admit it don't worry but I'm not afraid to voice my opinions. By the way, I think Dirrell is way behind these three and Froch will hand him the mother of all beatings. I'm not sure about Abraham, I think his fight against Taylor could go either way.
fair call but you are a nationalistic poster. thats why you couldnt help that "froch would have beaten them faster" end to the other post.
Fair enough. I'll amend my statement to say that IMO Froch would have had a similar result to Kessler and Ward against the same opponents. Regards
I think that Froch's aggressive style would have led to a very early stoppage aginst this caliber of opponents. That is my rationale.
:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl..... do me a favour ! the only similarities are they have two eyes a nose and mouth ! .....
