    Froch has always been very insightful and intelligent when breaking down boxing, but there's a disconnect with what he says and what he does. When he talks about himself, he describes a master boxer with a Larry Holmes jab and James Toney upper body movement. The reality is a far cry from that.

    Duke McKenzie is driving me mad I think hes actually more annoying than Jim Watt. 'Abrahams?' Is Froch fighting more than one of them?:nut

    True. AA has changed many plans with his power. Froch has power and can brawl effectively too.

    Can you get a concussion from a punch to the chin?

    Someone needs to tell George Groves that mouth breathing is not flattering on TV.

    So do I. It just looked too fake to be real to me.



    Yeah but he has neither the defence nor the chin of Arthur.

    Yes, especially a punch that you don't expect and brace you self for. Anything that rattles the head can cause a concuussion.

    Froch will be working the body to tire Abraham.

    Aye I agree, the pause before he went down, the shaking and reaction afterwards.....I just don't buy it.
