    I think this one will trump even this fight.

    Both needing a win to make it through! Absolute war throughout! :bbb

    I actually think the exact opposite...Kessler would slaughter Abraham and I think that Froch would match Arthur up the stretch where he supposedly does his best work.

    Froch will beat AA comfortably.

    I don't think anyone beats Arthur comfortably, Froch aint slick enough at some point he's going to eat some hard leather!!

    Dirrell was looking rough that last round.

    AA's a rough *******.:yep

    All I keep seeing is Carl's low hands, opening up and Abraham firing up the middle time and again. Froch can beat anyone in the tournament, and hopefully this loss will teach him to be more careful and impose his will.

    Abraham misjudged Dirrell a bit and thought he would run more than he did, so took too long to get going. I hope he's learnt something too.

    Kessler didn't improve at all from the Ward fight. Not one bit. But he fought with more passion, taking more risks.

    Very exciting fight. Very impressed with Froch's chin and toughness.

    Froch will be able to make him fight early and won't fade.

    When I say easily, I don't mean shutout, I mean 7-5, 8-4.

    Yeah it could def go that way on the score card's both ways.

    Froch seems to hold back on his combination's, waiting like Arthur.

    I think it could be a v good fight actually.

    I think AA-Froch could even be better then tonight. Two men needing to prove themselves again. I dunno that's gonna be some fight you know lads...hold your horses on FOTY..that could be it.

    Nonsense. His head was moving, and not from punches. He worked to the body as well, something he rarely did before. Montoya did a good job working with him to iron out those weaknesses a bit..

    Yup, this was a fight I always thought the home fighter would win.

    For once Mick did well.

  15. Contradiction in terms. You are full of ****. At least Ron Atkinson didn't have time to think before he commentated.
