    When your stock in trade is bending over like a ***** (Andre Direll) you are going to be open to rabbit punches more than most.

    Yea David Haye displayed excellent rabbit punching on Ruiz, but the skill which Froch does it in, holding the body with the left then stretching out with the right to make room, then bang the back of the head.

    The one he landed on Abraham round 12 is still a level ahead of Haye on Ruiz.

    We have a good one coming up between Froch and Glen Johnson. Difference is froch will do it in clinches. Johnson gets at an angle and does it.

    Peter lands a bunch to the back of the head, but I don't think he's trying to. He just lacks the skill required to land a well aimed punch.

    I don't know about that. I know Toney is hard to hit but he looked like he was frantic with that clubbing gorilla shot he kept trying. Toney was making alot of noise about this prior to thier first fight. Peter like Johnson just punches in this clubbing fashion a if a fighter is turned or bent over then they will get hit.
