    I'm not hating on Froch but I just re-watched the Froch-Taylor fight and he looked worse then he did the first time I watched it.I noticed a few things that I didn't the first time because I was rooting for Froch to knock Taylor socks off...and he did!:smokeBut,the guy is slow as ****!!!!He keeps his left hand below his waist and when he throws a jab he leans in with his chin in the air.:nonoHe's also open for a right hook and uppercut all day.I really dont see him beating anyone in the tournament but Taylor again.And if Taylor almost beat him...it's gonna be real bad when he faces Dirrell.Taylor was hitting Froch with 2-3 jabs at a time and then throw a flurrie and Froch would just throw a jab and a straight.Dirrell throws more punches and faster punches than Taylor...so I don't think Froch will be able to overcome the speed this time.Dirrell UD 10-2

    Direll has holes in his defense too and isn't battle tested.

    I think Froch can take this one. The early rounds belong to Direll though

    Froch looks like shite for sure,,, but he's still undefeated, and his wins over Pascal and Taylor show he's gotta be a little better than he looks.

    I also question Dirrell's maturity and ring intelligence. Basically all the intangibles are in Froch's favor. That against almost all the tangibles going for Dirrell, barring basic power.

    I think Froch's overrated more than the next guy. But he is still a tough fight for anyone cause of his power, chin, and will to fight. And Direll might be a little too inexperienced at this point.

    even if everything you say is true about Froch's defense, Dirrell has a prob because he has close to the weakest punch in the tourney. Also the saying a good offense is a good defense holds true with Froch. He's up in your face and applies alot of pressure. On tap what looks like a sure thing, isn't so sure when you get in there.

    I thought the same thing, but he beat Pascal. And Pascal is very good. So i reckon he won't. Even if Dirrell beats him i think hes to good for a few others.

    Who the **** is Dirrell?? stop bigging up an unproven fighter. Carl has the WBC strap and has overcome two pretty fast fighters in the past. Carl deserves his respect slow or not.

    froch is tough. In no way do I count him out. He is a very dangerous fighter and has great stamina and recuperative powers. Its ludicrous to suggest Dirrel will "smoke him"
