    Correct maybe I made to much of a blanket statement but many of his fighters fight the same way and Murat and Abraham are two examples.
    You could see the same elements in Urkal, May, Beyer and Ottke as well.
    I'll never forget the Reid/Ottke fight.

    But back to Abraham, he simply waits to long in his shell hoping to land a Taylor like shot. Imo this will not work with a fighter like Froch who will force him out of his comfort zone much sooner then he would like.

    Froch vs AA: 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.

    Still other ways the fight can go but I just feel this is the most likely.
