Here's the difference; abraham has got a granite chin example miranda fight, yet he covers that lump of granite as tho its a piece of the finest khan china. Froch just doesn't defend it whatsoever!!! A chin is a great attribute but its not a great defence tool. I rate both fighters highly but I am sure abraham will be the one taking the W in monaco...
Abrahams has had this problem before so I'll be suprised if genuinely does change his ways. He might as this mistake finally resulted in a loss rather than a late rally. Froch is well conditioned but lazy and sloppy in the ring. He will land but his trouble is if the fighters can handle his intangiables. Taylor couldn't handle his intangiables, Kessler could. It really was a simple as that. Other fighters would have been broken by one of Carls big shots, Mikkel wasn't. Froch has to go back to the drawing board and assess himself technically. Froch needs to pump that jab, while working through, around and below that high guard. He can walk him on to some big uppercuts, dirty right hands etc Abrahams is always dangerous. This fight could be special.
I have a feeling its going to be another Haye/Big Mac - obviously going to be bombs away - but then ends shortly...
Froch 100%. Abrham has never been in with anyone thats as physically strong, or punches as hard as Froch. Infact I dont think he has been in with anyone thats a bigger puncher than himself and Froch is a bigger puncher than Abraham.
Dunno so much mate, haye and mac are bangers with suspect chins, enzo in particular! I think abraham v froch will be a war that's more similar to moore v rhodes. Either way I will be happy as its a possible foty.
Which Froch fights make you think he is such a huge puncher? He's a concussive type puncher, but I wouldn't call him a massively powerful puncher.
Abraham has suddenly learnt this now? The daft twat did it against Gevor, Simon and probably plenty of others as well.
froch has no handspeed abraham can move away from most of the fire and i'm pritty sure froch has come to realise he was never that good which may play a bit in his head
Froch is not a big puncher since he stepped it up he has stopped a gassed Taylor who has been knocked out before and after the Froch fight, Froch has decent power that is all nothing more. Froch couldn't put a dent in Pascal Dirrell or Kessler.
