    I would expect a Froch vs AA, September, City Ground - 40,000.
    For the sake of such an event, I hope both Froch and AA win their respective next fight...and maybe to get the chance to see Abraham laying out the Englishman in front of a huge pro-Froch crowd...

      Aa

      Arthur says that there will be a decent Armenian crowd? Its going to be 70 to 80 percent Armenian. Its a home fight for the king.

        Perhaps this is why Froch changed his mind agreed to fight in Herning, because Sauerland said that they'd have his fight with AA in Britain.

          Where ever they fight at, I hope froch continues to leave his hands down like he dis with dirrell when he fights AA. I wanna see AA flatten him out.

            Out of the super six, Abraham is the only boxer capable of knocking Froch out. Froch doesn't have a great defence or great movement, and Abraham is willing to bide his time to land the right shot at the right moment. However, Froch is relentless, and will use everything within his power to pressure Abraham, and become the first fighter to beat him. It's a great fight. And my second favourite potential matchup behind, Kessler - Froch.
            no i disagree with that, i think if theres one boxer who can KO froch it is mikkel. mikkel would slowly chip away at frochs chin until froch had nothing left and then mikkel would send him down.

            froch has a very good chin, a better chin than people give him credit for, i think he was caught real good by dirrell because he didn't give dirrell enough respect and didn't think dirrell could do that to him. as for the JT KD i think he was KD because he was cold and he definently wasn't hurt.

            AA is a very good fighter and has the biggest punch out of any fighter at 168 but imo he is not active enough to KO froch. AA might KO froch with a single shot but i can't see it happening.

            i think for fighters like froch, andrade, margarito you need to wear them down with power punches and eventually they will wobble, one big shot just won't do it.

              The guys saying this will be like a home fight for Arthur Abraham are right. Direll doesn't have much of a following in the States yet and the transplanted Armenians are going to fill the place up for a chance to see Abraham.

                Will Dirrell run and hide?

                Will Dirrell run and hide? His performance against Froch was pitiful, it was more of a chase than a fight. Arthur Abraham will move constantly forward, cut off the ring and hope that Dirrell is foolish enough to exchange. AA has an excellent defense, and he can take a punch, too. Dirrell will either run and hide and lose on points, or get KO'd.
