    Carl Froch's speed.....

    Wayyyyyyyy under estimated. Just been watching nearly all his fights. I thought he was a pretty sluggish fighter, power puncher etc...but i must admit his speed is way under estimated wayy wayy under estimated, this guys got speed when he go's for the kill.

    Tried to find an example on YouPube, best i could find was @ 3.16 minutes



    3.16 then watch the devasting KO at 3.37 then watch 3.46

    Dirrell can run, but he can't hide.

    Froch will shatter Dirrell's suspect chin.

        He was more athletic in his early days but that may be since he was fighting lower calibre fighters.

        His footspeed is terrible but his handspeed is not that bad but it's stiil mediocre IMO.

          Agreed. I just can't see Dirrell getting out of trouble if he gets in it, and as it seems unlikely he will stop Froch that will happen sooner or later. Froch doesn't let up until his man is down, and has the chin to take any return shots while he's unloading.

            Froch sucks, but Dirrell is green. Go USA!

                  Froch can get theoretically beat up pretty bad, but man if he connects, all bets are off.

                  He can seriously crack and seeing how Dirrell ran from Stevens all night ( Stevens was always known as a huge puncher), I can see this fight being like that one.

                  He ain't trading with Froch. That's something you can bet on.

                    If I hear one more person overrate Froch's power I'm going to cry.
