Dumbass Jack and his Brit buddy Cobbler picked Froch to walk through Dirrell. I want him to predict an Abraham victory. Give me more peace of mind.
I think this will be a close fight. Abraham's so strong, so smart and so explosive - he can end it at any time. Dirrell has the speed to keep it interesting early, but Arthur's pressure is very different to Froch's. By the mid rounds, he'll be getting tagged to the body and trying to survive. I see a clear win for Arthur, just close on the cards. Maybe 116-114.
This is just pure dumb ****. If you think AA is gonna win, fine. But to look at a staredown and declare that AA looks confident and Dirrell looks like he's trying to prove something to himself is pretty ****ing idiotic.
Abraham via late rounds stoppage or UD. Hope Abraham isnt as conservative with his punch output as he was at 160, if he is Dirrell is definatley in with a chance. Dirrell wont disgrace himself in this fight.
:rofl Its funny looking at some post in here! Dirrell may not be power punching machine but he has enough to gain your respect!
Anything can happen but I really doubt Direll stops AA given he doesnt leave his chin out there like some fighters do...Dirrell will most likely outwork him ala Pac\Clottey! Whenever AA tries to return he's going to get frustrated because Dirrell will use his legs to evade AA onslaught.
Most of the posters here are stupid. Ward was supposedly "featherfisted" but hurt Kessler visible several times with his punches. They dont know that the best punches are punches you dont see coming with speed. Dirrell has the ability to hurt Abraham, just like he hurt Froch.
I predict AA will be down massively on the cards and will try and open up, which leaves him more open then Froch, given his small stature and small reach. I've also heard that Abraham has been rocked several time despite popular belief.
Thats very true...nobody can dispute that...but one's gotta realize, he not nearly as aggressive as Froch either...You see how Taylor was able to keep AA coverd up before he tired out in the later part of the fight! AA is gonna get his ears boxed off if he thinks he can play it like he did Taylor! (just my opinion of course)
hurt and staggering all over the place are 2 completley different things, he caught 3 flush hard shots and the only thing that happened was his leg stiffening ps. im not denying Froch was hurt and i admit that Dirrel should have probably got the decision, but he was no where near getting stopped there:good
