    My Froch-Dirrell Prediction

    Just thought it would interest to some of you to give my opinion on the fight.

    I see this being a very interesting one. Froch is a good fighter but the technical skills advantage would go to Dirrell. He's not only a lot faster than Froch but he has a better defense, as well.

    I think we'll see Dirrell winning most of the rounds. He's got the speed to catch Froch and basically pick his punches. But the thing is Dirrell will not be able to knock out Froch and that means he must go the full 12 rounds.

    I've seen Dirrell's fights before and I notice that he tends to tire during the later part of his fights. Exactly what happened to Taylor when he fought Froch.

    Froch has the stamina and the chin to be able to take this fight to the late rounds. By then, I predict that Dirrell will be gassed out and it'll be over with Froch TKO'ing Taylor.

    Froch by TKO in rounds 10-12.

    Pretty much agree unless Dirrell just tough enough to go 12 rounds then maybe he wins on points

      Dirrell actually doesnt have better defense, in my opinion.

      I think Carl will cut the ring off in the 6th round, Dirrell has handspeed but his footwork sucks and Carl should be able to trap him.

      Froch ko 7-9

            Froch can talk all the good stuff he wants but he will be getting a lot of lead straight lefts connecting on his chin. Dirrel will be getting off like crazy and Froch will be exposed as a fighter with journeymen potential and that's it. He's gonna get hit alot more than he did against Taylor and it's gonna look worse.

            Froch only fights one way and that is at the end of his punches. He can't fight inside because he can only throw an uppercut there and he can't fight moving. His fights like he got cement boots on and ankle weights on his wrist. His only way to win is a KO somehow because he's not boxing Dirrel to a UD. No way possible without a blatant robbery. He doesn't posses what it takes to UD him.

            WAYS TO WINNING THE FIGHT.
            FROCH: 1. Find a way to get to Dirrel and KO him.
            2. There is no 2, 3,4 or 5 because he only has one way to win.

            DIRRELL: 1. Just outbox him with angles and that handspeed that will have froch scared to throw on route to a UD.
            2. Accumulate a high amount of damage on Froch and knock him out (please let me hear the reason why Froch can't be KOed LOL). He most likely will be KOed
            3.Dirrell can run and popshot Froch all night and Froch's limited footwork won't be able to do anything about it on route to a UD.

            These 4 outcomes are the only possible outcomes. Not to mention that froch can't find sparring for Dirrell. He won't get any either because nobody he can get has the tools like Dirrell. The only 2 guys he can get for sparring are Chad Dawson and Anthony Dirrell. Nobody else will give froch anything that will get him ready for the speed, movement and overall skills he will see from Andre Dirrell. This is gonna be an easy to score fight with Andre dominating.

            As for other things I got to speak on, Froch has beaten Jermaine Taylor and while that is a great feat we all know how that happened. JT gassed out late and got undisciplined then Froch was there to take advantage of it. He was outboxed and in there with someone better and got the W. That's a great win no matter how anyone wants to look at it. He weathered the storm. Now to the point, I'm tired of people talking about that dam bum Jean Pascal as a big win. That guy is a bum, he's not fast but fights like it and he moves around slow (slow bounce) but acts like he's moving fast. He's sloppy period and to hear some of your say he's anything more then a B fighter (which Froch is) is just too funny. That bum he beat at LHW wasn't even respectable. Why do you think Pascal went up in weight? He's a dam bum and I hope he fights Johnson, Hopkins or Dawson sometime.

            PLEASE FEEL FREE TO BOOKMARK OR SAVE THIS POST BECAUSE DIRREL IS GONNA BUST DAT ASS AND I'M LOOKIN FORWARD TO SEEING HOW MANY FROCH FANS BECOME DIRRELL'S FANS.

              Seems like that's the only way Froch is ever going to win. His defense is terrible. He can be outboxed big time but can KO a tired man.

                  Question... if Froch is one of your favorites, and you are picking him by KO. Why are you betting on Dirrell then? .

                    One minute you think Dirrell will win, the next minute you think Froch will win.
