    I honestly think this will be a VERY interesting match-up. From a tactical standpoint it's to me one of the best match ups in the super6.

    Dirrel showed some good skills against Froch,hopefully he has learned from that fight and will try and engage a bit more.

    I think Abraham has a bit more class and patience than Frochy and expect him to actually disrupt Dirrels very solid fight game.

    yep, all dirrell needs to do is fight the exact same fight he did against froch to win, pot shot his way to a ud. It wont win him many fans but he'll get the home decision this time

    yes mate really looking forward to this. AA needs to cut the ring down and explode on dirrel. the sooner he does this the better coz i think dirrel will pick up the early rounds with his hit and run tatcics

    I've got a couple quid on Dirrel. If he can use similar tactics as he did with Froch but engages a bit more he could nick it on pts. However I expect AA to get to him late on and force a stoppage. Will be an interesting fight of styles.

    Remember how Jermain Taylro struggled to win more than a round against AA even early on?

    Anyone who Froch can compete with enough to get a controversial decision is getting outclassed by AA.

    Not a barnburner by any means, but a very interesting tactical match-up. Wouldn't surprise me in the least if Dirrell won on points.

    Have they announced what size the ring will be yet?

    I heard Dirrell's people were after 100m x 100m
