    My pick is Dirrell, however not a confident one.

    I pick Froch by KO in the 9th.
    I dont think Dirrel hits hard enough and dont believe that his footwork is as good as Taylors. Dont get me wrong. Dirrel looks good enough to make Froch look bad at times but I expect him to become more gunshy as the fight goes on.

    I pick Carl Froch by KO, but not all that confident with that pick as well.

    All of these Super 6 fights could go either way.

    Here is how I see the fight between the two...Dirrell will either outclass Froch and get stopped in the mid to late rounds or he will outclass Froch and win an easy dec.

    Its based on Dirrell being somewhat green, and Froch being not that good.

    i pick direll, but i question his chin. ive never seen him hurt but he's also stepping up big time, against a person who can punch. on skills and talen alone i would pick dirrell, but i can't remember having a coming out party opponent. i mean even andre ward had miranda.

    Froch will have handed Dirrell the beating of his life by the 10th. Froch by customary devastating stoppage

    Mark my words: If they get in the ring together, Froch will look as slow as a statue. Direll will absolutely light him up.

    What do you mean "if"? They are getting in the ring together. Froch was just a smidge slower than Taylor and was able to time him for big shots consistently. Dirrell's going to get sparked out.
