    Who will win when the Super Six Series kicks off in Froch's home town of Nottingham? Haven't seen a lot of Dirrell but I've heard he has the style to cause Froch problems. So will Froch overcome any difficulties or will Dirrell become the new champ in Froch's backyard?

    I think Dirrell will come over in great condition, really up for it and keep it close for a while.

    I'll go Froch 8-4.

    Let's be honest, has anyone seen enough of Dirrell to give an accurate prediction? JT's speed flummoxed Froch for the best part of their fight- I've heard that's Dirrell's biggest attribute is also his speed. It's an interesting bout but, for me, Froch's experience wins the day and the fight.

    I've never seen Dirrell fight.

    But he's american, annoying and supposedly has a bad chin, so I'm going with Froch by KO. Great logic.

    Probably Froch, but from what I've seen of Dirrell he will cause a lot of problems for as long as he lasts. Probably turn out a lot like the Pascal fight.

    A Froch TKO is probable, mid to late rounds, however I will give the guy the benefit of the doubt and pick Dirrell, I've a feeling he can win this. Froch is very beatable. And I find that often, when a prediction hinges on 'can unproven 'A' last the distance' it rarely goes as you expect it to.

    2 unbeaten fighters great. Someone's 0 must go. One thing you have to give Froch lots of credit ditto Dirrell.

    Dirrel will get dragged into the trenches and not come out the other side.

    I fancy Dirrell as the underdog. Froch is overrated.

    Can't know for sure but I get the feeling Dirrell may just be another American prospect with some good skills and arsenal.... but just misses something? and that something will cost him with Froch. Just speculation though.
