lol thought you meant he'd lose round one of the fight against Dirrell

I'm starting to appreciate The Cobra more now...but I still have Dirrell beating him.

At least Dirrel will always have tha opening round to cherish as a fond memory hehe

Dirrellis going to either,

A) Jab and move, and potshot all night, en route to a decision victory.

or

B) Get KTFO

lmao. You said it Shadows. I'm favouring (A)

I'm not convinced Froch is prepared for the speed and movement Dirrell is bringing. I'm thinking Froch is convinced he will KO or TKO Dirrell somewhere along the way...and I think that is a mistake.

froch can outbox anyone with his long jab!

True.

I thought Pascal tried to go to war too much, and JT stayed in the pocket too much, but then again, JT didn't have the stamina to do that anyway in retrospect.

Dirrell is so much faster than Froch, but he has a bad habit of backing up in straight, and into corners. He'll have to avoid that, especially because I'm willing to be it's going to be a small ass ring.

You're right, I was really surprised Pascal started trading with Froch almost from the start. What the hell? I was not expecting that at all..which was the reason I thought Pascal would beat him.

Dirrell is crazy fast, and he has pop in his punches. Maybe not enough to hurt The Cobra, but if you're getting hit in bunches with those shots you never know what could happen.

But you know...I never thought about the ring size before. Now that you mention it you can bet it will be small alright.

Froch will lose opening round
