    I think Froch is getting closer to being a shot fighter.

    He is increasingly finding it difficult to let his hands go/get off first.

    Maybe he can use his reach against AA, maybe, but Ward will **** him up something chronic, if they meet.

    Well seeing Froch against Dirrell and Kessler and how he made Dirrel look like **** and at times made Kessler look very troubled I think that Froch will do better against Abraham than you'd expect.

    Not so much, but he did land it and you could see Kessler felt a bit uncomfortable with Froch's reach. Kessler did well when he was pressing Froch backwards, but when Froch was on the offensive he looked very uncomfortable.

    Dirrell made Dirrell look like ****. Hell, he looked worse against Curtis Stevens, so if that's your criteria then Stevens must be a ****ing monster. Froch as a serious step up in class and stage for Dirrell and his immaturity showed. I sincerely hope they get a rematch down the road, I think Dirrell would take his head off.

    Remember after the fight where he refused to admit the effect of the body shots? :lol:

    "..No it was more mental than anything.. I mean.. if I just fought a little smarter I know in my heart that I would have stopped him, which NOBODY has EVER done...but I didn't do it..." LOL Froch is a genious COMEDIAN! More dumb Froch quotes please! Hes delusionally hilarious!

    It would be fun seeing Bute smash this weak body.

    I really don't understand all this talk about Froch is in danger against AA. I believe it is the other way around for two reasons. Froch has a massive reach advantage and hits hard himself. When AA explodes Froch will keep his distance just right and launch a devastating counter. Secondly, I see Froch being able to get through AA's guard using his akwardness. I'll go as far as saying the likelihood of Froch KO'en AA is greater. Another epic War is in store for us!:happy

    I think Abraham has to do better that he did against Dirrell to pass by that annoying jab that Froch has. The smart thing for Froch is to stay behind that reach and counter AA with some big punches (make him miss & pay).I was impressed by that jab of him against Kessler.I think the fight was lost by Froch when he got tired from using it to much to keep MK away and droped his work rate (The consequence: some rounds have gone to Kessler). I don't know why it seemed to me so effective(the jab) against Kessler i don't remember being so good against Pascal/Taylor/Dirrell.Maby it was the reach difference ?!? What is the reach difference between Froch & AA ... bigger or smaller then between Froch&Kessler?

    Mikkel looked almost insulted by Froch's reach. His look was something like "what the ****! how dare you wave those long annoying arms in my face I'm trying to punch you goddammit!"

    Yeah Froch's reach caused a lot of trouble for Kessler.

    If they fight again Kessler is getting knocked out.

    Froch fails to fully capitalise on his reach because he is so slow.

    With Froch's habit of holding his hands low, it is almost unimaginable that AA won't land a few big punches on Froch's silly noggin.

    AA will be the hardest puncher Froch has faced and will I suspect knock Froch out.

    Finally, Bute will be able to shut this big mouth. Watch your body Carl!
