    Andre Dirrell the way he closed the Froch fight.

    Howard Eastman or Nader Hamden with more endurance. Oral with stronger ribs. ;) Mayweather fighting like in the last two rounds vs. Hatton.

    I dont think Direll has the size and strength to keep off Abraham, hes very strong and very good at cutting off the ring and keeping monumental pressure on his opponents. I think Andre Ward is a bit stronger than Dirrell and a bit better boxer, so I think his style of speed, boxing, and mixing it up a little is the way to win.
    I dont see anyone knocking Abraham out so its going to take someone with good movement and the ability to fight him off in spots to beat him by decision. Ward looks like the most likely candidate. I expect Dirrell to get knocked out late.

    Good footwork, speed, combination punching, chin, and stamina.

    Arthur is flat footed and stationary, a good boxer with a stamina and chin would outpoint him

    A strong puncher, using left and right hooks and moving side to side.
    Jabbing and moving is no use against his shell defence walking you down.

    That's why I can't see Andre 'the spoiltrix' Dirrell take a decision.

    Lighting fast body shots and counter hooks to catch Abraham when he comes out of his shell. Great movement and defence to get away from Abraham's explosive attacks.

    Basically Roy Jones Junior in his prime.

    I think Ward beats him by clear decision,too fast and too skillful for AA.

    dirrel may be a disgrace to boxing to the way he performed against froch but i put 50 quid on a dirrel decision win over abraham and i will more than treble my money because dirrel will outpoint abraham

    it will be an awful awful awful fight with dirrel hitting and then running like a chicken

    A guy with one hell of a chin. Cause 1 shot and its usually over for you vs Abraham and its over.
    Speed and power to keep him off you.
