    Cannot wait for this fight to hurry up and come. Dirrell taking froch out in his own back yard LOL. A convincing win for andre dirrell. Froch will not just come out swinging and will be very cautous when he gets hit with the lead straight left to set the tone. Don't act like froch doesn't get cautous. He was on his heals because of taylor's speed for most of the fight and he will be even more hesitant when he sees dirrells speed popping his slow self before froch thinks about throwing that jab.

    People think that dirrell isn't ready for froch but It will be apparent that froch isn't and was never ready for dirrell by the 3rd round. He might as well not have sparred anyone because nobody can duplicate dirrell besides his brother.

    Carl has stated in numerous interviews he has worked on his defence of late which should help counter the speed youu refer to. We haven't really seen enough of Dirrell fighting at a higher level to really know how he is going to do when the going gets tough.

    I do rate Dirrell's skills and attitude based on what I have seen on youtube but think this fight has come too soon for him.

    lol but Hamed was the man!

    Box office star, introduced big money purses to the featherweight divisions, and he had a habit of backing up his talk. He was the one that got me in to boxing in the first place, and some of my fondest memories involved him. :good

    Hamed was a one off, a legend.

    One thing most don't know about team froch that is very relevant
    is that he has a fairly young, very fit, and world class experienced trainer in rob mcCracken. He is only 10 years retired from top class world honors
    as a competitor. He can really show froch and illustrate what needs to be done in there. Couple that with an inate respect for your trainer, and a mean streak with alot of power and you have a making of a great fighter.
    Problem with froch right now is that he thinks he's an ATG. However, he has one of the best corners in boxing. Bar none.

    I really don't know how good his corner is. I like how they had the right perspective late in the taylor fight and advised him well. I haven't watch froch's pre pascal fights so I would like to see how they handle cuts, refs, and every other aspect of being a solid corner. I think froch is a smarter fighter than most give him credit for which makes his corner look good also. I would like to see a bit more from that team in the future and with other fighters before I rate them.

    Honestly Dirrel =l looks good but he seems to much of a goof for a fighter.
