    There will be a lot of bandwagoners after this fight saying "I was always a fan of Dirrell". Just watch and wait

      You can probably take our Haye-Klitschko bet out of your sig now.


      As for the article, It's good that Dirrell actually has a fight plan, something that Froch doesn't really specialize in.

        Direll sounds good on paper what you are saying. But why give the whole game away?

          Dirrell needs to be humble from here on out and worry about Froch when he takes him to deep waters in the later rounds!!
          I agree. Talk is always cheap.

            Agreed. Dirrell is going to run circles around Froch. All this deep waters crap and Froch's overwhelming punching power is overrated. Froch had a good win against Pascal but the Taylor fight, well that's Taylor, who lost once to Bernard and Winky (gifts), has no killer instinct, and has faded in all his fights after Hopkins. Froch was suppose to beat him and barely did that. Dirrell is a bigger Mayweather and his skills will show.

                I don't believe in Froch's power - he hits hard but not a power puncher.

                Dirrell, well he seems to have all the skills - can switch hit with ease and is extremely fast.

                Unfortunately for Dirrell, he is easy to hit - his head movement isn't there and his defence is not great.

                Dirrell could be fantastic but he hasn't done anything yet to prove he will be. A win over Froch will answer alot of questions.

                Froch can take a shot and Dirrell is not a puncher. What people seem to underestimate is Froch's speed and boxing ability. They are there and they will become abundantly apparent in this fight.

                Froch is one of those fighters that grows into being a champion and against Dirrell he will show it.

                Gonna be 3-0 to Europe after the 1st round. Maybe Showtime will cancel the show then.

                      I think Dirrell has all the skills to win this one but he should stay focused and stick to his plan.

                      I guess he thinks that even if Froch knows his "plan", it is not going to make a difference because from what he has seen, Froch always fights the same way. Froch will try to knock him out and Dirrell will jab and slip away until he can jab and straight left him to the jaw. He can't tire out though so the jab should serve him well till the later rounds when he can let go a little (provided the jab is enough to hold Froch off and build a lead)
