    Anything could happen but 99% you will see Carlos Forchero on the canvas

    Not really easy to predict but I hope for Abraham by way of knockout.

    Froch learned from Kessler. If Abraham covers up for the first half of the fight, Froch should work the body. Froch jab is very good, and he is very strong.
    But Abraham has stated, that he learned from the Dirrell fight, not to be to passive early in the fight.....................so.................

    Froch UD or Abraham KO.................has to be a great fight though :bbb

    Mad props to Ward, Abraham and Froch for staying in this Tourney and still making it somewhat watchable. Far as the fight...If it ends in a KO, Abraham - If it goes the distance, Froch. This will be a nice fight for the Casual Fan because there will be allot of action. But for the Boxing Purest...this should be an UGLY-ASS fight. So don't expect to see defense, movement or any real technique.

    don't be fooled by AA not having boxing skills. He throws strong straight purposeful punches and has an amazing guard and feel for punches coming. He will throw right between Froch's shots and brutalize him badly.

    Erm what exactly has AA done at SMW? He ha a KO win over a blown up middle, and a loss against dirrell who Froch already beat. Does AA punch as hard at 168 as he did at middle? I'm not so sure.

    Froch wins the early rounds by outworking the slow starting Abe. After some close and scary moments in the muddles rounds, Froch picks it up again to get the fairly close UD by 2 rounds or so

    Froch does nothing great. He is good at a lot of things has heart but with a guy like AA you need to be a master at something. He does not box well enough to give AA trouble. He is nothing AA has not seen and Arthur will def be confusing for him. Arthur has a guard that he will not be able to get past and in his fustration he is gonna be facing the hardest heavy handed fighter. Way over his head vs AA. Wrong style. wrong everything. He will lose badly.

    I am not 100% sure about that. I´ve seen nearly all of Arthurs pro fights and he does have certain weaknesses. Shots to the body (the only way to get past the turtleshell) and a high workrate for 12 rounds might be the the key to vitory against Abraham.

    Well i think AA is the lock of the year to crush Froch. Just don't see it. Froch was down vs jermaine taylor who was a vegetable already. He is sloppy Froch, over confident and what does he do great ? He is not a great body puncher and his chin will be tested in a big way.

    AA - Destruction. Again if any one knows Froch or his camp please reach out and advise he is in great danger vs Arthur. They should bring a neck brace and make sure they have smelling salts handy.
