    Dirrel doesn't gas. Dirrel always switches stances constantly and that's probably going to confuse the hell out of Froch too.
    Sweet analysis.

    Also, take our Pavlik/Martinez bet out of your sig you coward... we already discussed this.

      the thing about froch is, he doesnt make adjustments no matter what i.e getting rocked with a big punch, he instead drops his hands even lower and bumrushes his opponents. i noticed that in the taylor fight. and with someone who has an excellent jab from southpaw and orthodox like dirrell, will give froch big problems and i dont see him being able to pull a stoppage out like he did with taylor. i see dirrell's straight left hand and left uppercut are going to win him a stoppage against froch around the 6th or 7th round

        Its well within Dirrel's abilities to outbox Froch, and Dirrel is incredibly quick, and willing to stink the joint out to get a win.

        I don't think Froch has the pedigree to chase down and beat a seasoned amateur like Dirrel who will undoubtedly be on his bike all night.

          Not dissin Direll,but i noticed watching his fights that as soon as he gets hit he starts to run or hold,even against "bums",so whats he gonna do when he gets tagged by Froch?

            I think Dirrell vs Froch will be really interesting, Froch has a great chin, good but not great power and a lot of heart but his defense sucks, especially his low left hand and mediocre footspeed, on the other hand Dirrell has a lighting handspeed,great work rate and a nice defense, but I don't like the way he react to pressure and that's what Froch will do.
            Dirrell has all the tools to outbox him but with Froch's will you never know.

              Facts about Dirrell.

              He has been dropped and SERIOUSLY hurt by a bum who hits way lighter than Froch.

              He is green and has never boxed in front of a hostile crowd.

              He has looked good so far but is fighting a world champion who is above the level of anyone else he has fought.

              He doesnt have the power to hurt Froch i don't think, Pascall is a way stronger guy and he didn't really hurt Froch.


              Again im no Froch lover, and I think when he faces abraham or kessler its goodbye froch, but Direll isn't the man to do it imo
