    Abraham by KO if Froch doesn't have a heck of a game plan in his pocket. Froch has the reach advantage and the activity whereas Abraham has the punch and the D. If Froch magically turns into a clever fighter with a defense he might have a chance to UD Abraham. If Froch fights as usual he won't see the 12th round. Taylor was able to hurt Froch, Abraham has the ability to knock him out with 2 or 3 nice punches. Froch won't get up if he gets caught by the type of sledgehammer Abraham hit Taylor with.

    I'm going with Froch, UD....

    I saw some real bad signs from AA's first fight against a legit SMW in dirrell. That was the fact that dirrell was knocking him around even when AA blocked his shots. I don't think AA is overwhelmingly strong at SMW. Froch and his stiff power will be doing the same thing and it never looks good to judges to be knocked off balance even when the shot is blocked. Froch also has the looping shot to go around AA's guard and stanima to keep the pressure on AA. One thing I don't think froch can do that dirrell did was go to AA's body. Dirrell put alot of pinpoint jabs and straights to AA's belly button. Bothered AA so much that he started complaining instantly at the legal punches to a point that he was ignored when he actually got hit with a low blow later in the fight. Froch doesn't have to speed to lead off like dirrell did but he should be able to mix in a body shot 3 or 4 punches into his combination. I don't think AA will have too much steam late in the fight from froch battering him. I do see froch hitting the canvas atleast 1 time from an AA straight right. Still have froch taking the UD.

    Will definately be a hell of a fight.

    Have to say after reading everyone's comments I'm really looking forward to this! I'm sticking with AA TKO though.

    i expect froch to win on points.

    he should rack up the frst 7 rounds easy and then it is just a matter of discipline, if he can box smart when AA comes on strong then he should whether the storm. i just hope he doesnt get too confident and start trading.

    I have a feeling Froch will take this one by decision! But Frochs defence is still ****, if AA lands just one hard shot it can all be over!

    Abraham KO, but you never know with Froch, he'll find some way to turn this into a W.
