Dirrell Says That He Can Take Froch's Punches

[NakiFan]

I kind of see this as a replay of the Curtis Stevens fight where he is too quick for his opponent but manages to bore the **** out of the world winning an ugly decision not engaging and potshotting.

If he trades with Froch it could get interesting, but Froch is so damn slow and Dirrell is petrified of power so Dirrell can outquick him all night without winning any fans... and could steal the decision.

If they go at it in the center of the ring, your scenario would work, just don't think it's gonna happen that way.

The big difference is that curtis stevens was SEVEN INCHES SHORTER THAN DIRRELL

Froch is one inch shorter if that, Stevens was like a dwarf running round trying to hit dirrell, tua-lewis style lol.

I dont see this massive pressure fighter people say Froch is, he didnt really put pressure on Taylor till late, Taylor's punches were keeping him at bay for most of that fight.

[Addition]

He seems sure he can take his punches, I wonder if he thinks he can go 12 rounds without getting tired? Because that's the key to beating Froch.

Dirrel's game plan is going to fall apart as soon as Froch connects with a monster punch and knocks him for six. I think he'll hang on for a round or two after the first time he gets wobbled but I'm expecting to see a HARD mid-round KO coming from Froch on this one.

even though Dirrell is untested in the ''Big League'', I can still see him win this one against Froch. The one thing that will work in his favour is froch's slow start.

So I think is one will be Dirrell by UD

Nope he wont!!!!!!!!

He will look good for the irst 3 rounds, then he will gass like always and Froch will break him down and KHO in the 9!!!!!!!!
