    i'm surprised how many brits are going with froch.

    i do the predictions on boxrec and it was something like 23-7 for froch. :shock:

    dirrell is just much better.

    better skills.

    better wheels.

    better defence.

    u name it baby. :yep

    No question about it, Froch's nose is just so much bigger. That'll be the difference in this fight.

    Better chin? Better stamina? Bigger heart? More experience? More power?

    NOT!

    Totally ! Dirrell is quick but where is this idea that he has world class movement etc coming from ??

    Are there fights out there against quality opposition i havent seen yet ?

    And how do you know Carl has a better chin? has Dirrell be knocked out? NO,

    And how do you know Carl's got better stamina? has Dirrell gassed out in his fights? NO,

    And how do you know Carl has the bigger heart? has Dirrell had his heart broken in the ring? NO..

    Everything the Froch fans say is purely SPECULATIVE, but the FACTS are Dirrell does indeed have advantages in Speed, Skills, Movement, Technical ability, Reach, Height etc, the only area where Froch has the upper hand is experience, you might argue he has more power but even that is speculative too when you consider Dirrell has stopped 13 of his 18 opponants.

    Dirrell is indeed one of the most overrated fighter at the moment.

    Just 3-4 months ago nobody was talking about him and nobody cared.

    I suspect all these people hyping Dirrell are in fact Carl Froch's fans trying to overrate another win of their idol.

    j/k

    on boxrec the official heights are dirrel 6'2 froch 6'1 kessler 6'0 an taylor 5'11. dirrell opponents are usually between 5'8 and 5'10 so froch is very tall compared to his norm

    Taylor is 6'1

    I'd say they are about the same height.

    Dirrell is 6'2 and Kessler is 5'11.5

    x2 My final picks for this weekend are for Dirrell and Abraham. Dirrell's by no means the next Sugar Ray but he has the skill set to take advantage of Froch's flaws! All he has to do is keep it together and not trade with Froch.
