Both these guys are one dimensional but can bang. Lets hope one of them isnt ruined by the time we see this fight.
This will be interesting, since Froch is going to have to bring it after he loses to Kessler. He'll get KO'd in the process.
Froch confirmed it but I dunno whether I can post links to the article. I could quote the whole thing but again ESB can be really really weird with their rules sometimes. 1 day something is ok the next it's draconically come down upon :|
When they first announced the tourney, AA's first 3 opponents were listed as Taylor, Dirrell, and Froch. There is certainly no guarantee that Abraham can beat Taylor, and it is real easy to imagine Dirrell out boxing Abraham with relative ease. Every single Abraham opponent who had any skills at all troubled him. AA may come into his Froch fight pretty banged up from back to back losses.
Taylor can slip punches. For a guy with a very low work rate like AA, not being land the few (admittedly powerful) shots he does throw could lead to him losing a lopsided decision. If JT makes this a careful, boring fight, I would not be in the slightest surprised to see him take a UD.
I'm not a Froch fan, but Froch should eat Abraham for breakfast. Great style matchup for Froch, horrible style matchup for Abraham.
I see it the other way around. A man who walks straight onto massive counter-punches somewhat plays into AA's hands.
