    Dirrell might have the speed and the skills. But Zab Judah has the speed and the skills too. Speed is not the be all and end all.
    Dirrells footwork is terrible, and he squares up an awful lot. He does that against Froch, then its game over.

        Indeed. I really think Dirrell is underestimating Froch. Froch reminds me a bit of Nigel Benn. Not stylistically, but in the way you know he has weaknesses and he can be beaten, but to do it you're going to have to go through hell to do it.

          Green k simply for uttering the words, Nigel Benn.

            I'm still waiting for someone to expose Froch, two of the best North American Supermiddleweights (perhaps the two best?) have tried but one lost a UD and the other got KTFO.

            Froch is so underrated (mostly by Americans) it's criminal. Since when was speed the only factor is a fight? Dirrell isn't a big puncher and Froch has shown he has a very good chin.

                  Dirrell unlike Taylor is a natural supermiddle, judging from his fights Dirrell hits even harder than Taylor. So there is no doubt that Dirrell has the power to hurt Froch.

                      Undoubtedly any fighter in this tournament can hurt any of the others, but that guy was a bum and despite the cut didnt look all that hurt.
