    I don't think the Taylor loss was as bad as it appeared

    because Abraham would have gotten Pavlik out quicker and it is very likely he will do the same to Dirrell and Froch. If Abraham KO's his next two opponents, I don't think Taylor should hold his head down too much over his brutal KO loss.

    I might be the only one who thinks this. But I believe Dirrell will give AA problems with his height and speed. I doubt he gets KO either. Not saying he will win.

      AA can be outboxed and outworked. He is a really strong puncher but he can be beat

        I know and Miranda showed that also.

        I think Dirrell has a chance to be honest

            Come on, it was pretty bad!
            he pounded against the floor, and looked dead. (didnt you see how stiff he was?)

                I wouldn't say he's done, but his confidence has to be shattered at this point.

                  He was actually doin quite decent up until the last round but when u end up hospitalized with a severe concussion and brain hemmoraging it calls for some serious re-evaluation of goals and priorities.

                    We'll see how he does against Kessler and Ward. I dont think Dirrell has a chance in hell against AA unless he overhauls his whole approach to the fight game.

                    Froch did nothing but walk straight in with his hands down and instead of making him pay for it Dirrell backed himself into a corner time after time after time. Abraham's not that good at cutting off the ring but if Dirrell does 80% of the work for Abraham like he did against Froch....Abraham would not let him out of a corner alive.
