He says he's going to knock people out and he does his best to keep to his word. Not a massive fan of his style (Roy Jones without the speed), but it makes for an entertaining fight. Anyone who looks for the ko is ok by me. If he keeps his hands up he can win this tournement. But don't fancy his chances of trying to out bomb Kessler or Abrahams. But no doubt he will try.
Win lose or draw, you can bet the fights which have Froch in them, will be the best ones in this tournament from a thrill-factor. You can pick up any of his fights to date, press play and see some great action. From the early days until now, his fights/ interviews have ranged from awesome to hilarious.
Absolutely.A lot of fighters take fights first and foremost to make some money, they then hope they fight well enough to beat there opponent. When Froch talks about his next fight you can see that he believes 100% in his ability to win the fight. I was critical and to an extent cynical about his talent during his early career,but i wouldn't bet against him beating anyone at 168 now. The haters have been praying the next guy is the one to beat and expose him,but he keeps on winning. He's not unbeatable,only a fool would believe he is,but that iron will and self belief will take some breaking. Will he win the tournament ? i dont have the answer. Will he beat Dirrell ? yes,and i think his detractors will be surprised just how easy he takes care of Dirrell. :good
Not by all he wasn't. I predicted he would get outboxed to a UD against Taylor and I was seconds away from winning a bit of money off it. He has a great fighting attitude no doubt about it but he's not world class as will be shown in the tournament.
