    Unlike Tunney though, Froch is not a smart boxer, he's not fast and he doesn't have much in the way of defense. I think he'll slug it out with Abraham, and at times try to box as best he can, but it'll be far from the Dempsey-Tunney fights. Abraham is not aggressive, just a puncher, while Froch is awkward but tough.

    Froch has about as much in common with Tunney as a microwave oven does with a lampshade.

    Then again, Abraham doesn't have much in common with Dempsey either other than power.

    You can get both microwave ovens and lampshades at Tesco.

    Actually I think Froch could follow a Miguel Lora game plan in this fight, obviously it could be highly successful against Abraham.

    To be fair to the writer he set out a fairly decent gameplan to beat Abraham and acknowledged Frochs weaknesses would probably stop him from implementing it.
