yes froch won and showed a great heart in doing so. i like froch and think his willingness to fight anyone is great for the sport. BUT...he fights w/ his hands around his waist and his chin over his lead foot and has very robotic movement. maybe dirrell can use his athleticism out point him, maybe not...but to write him off completely just b/c he "hasnt fought anyone" isnt warranted given all the flaws froch has
Taylor was visibly smaller than Froch and has never been even remotely a KO artist. A true SMW will hit a lot harder than Taylor. I wouldn't count Froch out of any fight that goes into the late rounds. But against the best of the SMW fighters he's not going to have it easy. Only time will tell if Dirrel is the whole package or merely a killer of tomato cans .
I think Froch could potentially hurt Dirrell badly. Dirrell wont hurt Froch and Froch wont stop pressing. Froch gets Dirrell out of there in the late rounds.
Froch will HAVE to ko dirrell to win in my opinion while Dirrell can win by ko(if he has the power) or wide decision...or ugly decision via run around the ring. I wouldnt be surprised be any of the outcomes though.
Let the Froch bashing began. I never heard anything until he cut down wlad. These nuthuggers are insane. Froch told the truth wlad does not have any balls.
Crap matchup for Froch in terms of the direction his career has been going. He deserves a better name than Dirrell for the opening match in this alleged tourney. Dirrell is also troubling - quite possibly the fastest hands in all boxing. Not a good situation. Raw deal.
Dirrell never been really tested but he got all the tools to beat Froch but as always since Dirrell never been in a big fight we are not sure If he got heart or a good chin something Froch have . I bet 2 times against Froch ( Pascal , Taylor ) and i'm still think his beatable but nobody did it yet .
