    I'm waiting for him to call Dirrell a nincompoop and tell him he's going to give him a lickin'.

    I would put Mundine, Pascal and Andrade on more or less the same level. Mundine has a longer and better resume than the two others but on the whole they can be grouped I think. Although Mundine away, IS a better win than a relatively unknown Pascal at the time in the UK. Taylor is a better win than these three though.

    Bunce and some others had a discussion (is on youtube) where they all agree that what Froch has done is unprecedented and neither Calzaghe not Hatton did this. Got a belt and went straight for the biggest name the US had, won and broght the belt back home again. Calzaghe waited forever and Hatton had a few average fights after wrestling the belt off old Kostya. Then the two times he finally stepped up he got KTFO. I think, like Bunce and partners, that Froch deserves a lot of respect.

    Just from that underlined sentence I guess you don't know what you're talkin about. Dirrell is a good amount faster than taylor and everyone in the super six by a decent margin. Dirrell also has the fastest feet in/out and side to side by a wide margin. Froch is gonna be very surprised when he sees this hand and footspeed in person.

    Just for your information. Those guys watching aren't gonna be in the ring. Common sense and anyone who thinks the fans make a difference to how someone fights is just stupid. The only home advantage is that the jugdes might think froch is hitting dirrel when the fans cheer. Bad thing is that only works for faster fighters where the judge can't tell if the punches are landing when the crowd is cheering. Froch doesn't throw combinations well and he's not the flashy one so that HOME ADVANTAGE IS NULL AND VOID.
