    “I can’t pick a winner because it’s in the States. I really am 50/50,” “It will either be a brutal KO by Abraham or a boring points decision by Dirrell with a *****-like performance. Come on Abraham…catch him sweet!”

    Carl Froch is a wise man!

    Comments from Froch, Kessler, Ward and Green on the Dirrell vs. AA fight,

    They changed the *****-like performance part in Froch´s quote. But if you scroll down here:http://www.fightnews.com/ you´ll find the original quote.

    Yep, it means that judging is mostly in the home fighters favour in almost all countries, including the USA... Something everybody knows already.

    Froch knows that all to well seeing as Dirrell beat him - at least before the 'official verdict' was called anyway.

    The caveman has spoken. Froch beats Kessler unless Mikkel comes up with a miracle.

    Yes like i said before, I had it 114-113 for Dirrell... but it was the first time ever I was happy that the one I had in front didn't get the verdict.
    If I where a judge that night, I would have handed over my scorecard with tears in my eyes with the spoilfest that guy put on...
    But it was also very close, and therefor not the 'straight out robbery' a lot of people call it, nowhere near Malignaggi - Diaz I for instance, and certainly no Campillo - Shumenov II.

    Froch is a limited fighter who gets lucky so my opinion of him as a top 6 contender is not very high but as a person he is an interesting character and he does bring it all to the ring when he fights. Good quote.

    If a dumby like you had Dirrell by a round, I am almost certain Dirrell won that fight by 3-4 points.

    I cant wait for Froch-Abraham. Froch is gonna get spanked, if he doesnt by Kessler already.
