    IB you are doing so much these RBR so I want to ask something. What is your opinion about Ville Piispanen after seeing that one match? I am from Finland and Piispanen is one of my favourites and I really think that Piispanen's style is very beautiful and his jab is very effective. But those late rounds.. There is much things to do cause u cant get so tired as he did. But yeah, I would like to hear your opinion. Is there any future for Ville Piispanen? And I have to say that: I love your Round by rounds.

    Nice KO:

    Abraham isn´t really faster than Froch but when he gets going he is very explosive. That will be the problem for Froch, I think.

    I bet it will be a good fight. Both are warriors with undentable wills. Neither will give up. Really hyped for it.

    Thanks. :good

    He did look a full league above Rasilla in the first 2/3 of the fight. His jab and movement are very nice. Like you say, the stamina is a concern. It's almost inexcusable that he allowed the Spaniard to get back into it.

    I'd love to see him hook up with a good trainer with international experience.

    I'm trying to get a quick meal in before Abraham-Froch but will definitely check out that video afterward. Piispanen has piqued my interest. :nod

    Abraham has the straighter, more explosive punches and Froch is not hard to hit by right crosses, so this should be interesting. Froch is a real warrior though and has the superior workrate and stamina, and I think he takes this. How good is AA's power at 168 really? If this fight goes to the later rounds how does AA deal with Froch's intensity? We are about to see and it will be a great fight.

    For someone who has been on this forum for 2.5 yrs, that was an interesting question.
