    Hes no where near as slow as alot of the people on here say he is. He loads up with vertuallyu every shot but they come fro very awkward agles. And for some reason everybody seems to remember the Taylor fight much different to what actually happened. I keep hearing that Froch was way behind going in to the last round and flukely pulled it out the bag.

    As i recall the fight was clse with Taylor edging it slightly with home advantage and the crowd playing a part in that.

    One Judge did have froch ahead.

    Is this a serious post? Dirrell gets dropped by journey men tomato cans and you say Froch's power wont bother him :patsch Dirrell has never faced anyone with punch power Froch has and most of his opponents have been short and slow.

    Yeah, it would be freaking hilarious!

    Unfortunately, it's not and will never be true. I'm still picking Froch to win, but it definitely won't be on handspeed!

    But Dirrell makes those cool noises when he throws punches so he must be faster than Froch.

    Froch aint slow by any means .... and lets face it who can pick that left jab coming from around his waist ... ur eyes are on him but all youre perifiral vision can see is this wandering left jab hanging around ready to launch ! ... this is why froch is as good as he is , everyone goes on about Dirrells switch hitting style but he has never come close to fighting any boxer with Frochs style ....

    I'd laugh my arse off if Dirrell uni-cycled his way to the ring, I'd laugh my arse off if he elected to fight in a thong instead of the regulation shorts, I'd laugh my arse off Froch got Khan'd by Malignaggi who turned up as a late stand in for Andre...There's any number of bull**** scenarios without the slightest chance of happening that would make me laugh my arse off.

    That's a good point - it must be unnerving - his hands aren't always visible at the same time - probably why you get caught with those sneaky shots... you think it's a just a jab but the right hand's come to the body while you were focused on a punch he was feinting with.

    He's smart, is Froch - a bit sloppy, but undoubtedly effective.

    Can any Dirrell fans show one fight in which he fought someone as tall as he is and with a long reach? I have only ever seen this guy look fast and slick against very short sort of blown up SMW.
