          I've taken to adding "if you like" (with a Notts accent) to every other sentence in tribute to Carl, hahahaa . . . drives my girl nuts.




          Carl is a minor phenom. Long may he run.
          Haha you know it Carl is a ledge on the mike, night out in Nottingham for the Dirrell fight was one of the best i've ever had.

            My prediction:

            Froch will need to use movement a lot in this fight if he has any chance. But we all know, Froch won't use movement. He's got a weird jab and it seems really awkward how he just flicks it out like a whip at the opponents face. He doesn't get much power on it, so it's not going to deter someone like Abraham from charging forward.

            Abraham has a high guard, so Froch's best bet is to work the body. Froch will probably headhunt regardless. Throwing his wild looping hooks which gives Abraham the perfect opportunity to land a punch.

            Abraham's best bet is to charge Froch down from the opening bell, moving him around the ring and into the ropes. Froch isn't going to move Abraham around, he'll try and trade. Even if he does try to control Abraham, his jab isn't good enough to do so.

            Abraham via 7th round stoppage.

              I guess everybody now knows that AA can be outpointed by a skilled speedster.

              Froch's skills gets highly underrated here so he maight be better than AA in that department but I think it's fair to say that Carl is just as slow as AA.

              I'm sure this will be a battle for the ages. Both men has strong wills. Perhaps the venue will be the deciding factor? I hope not as I'd love to see the fight on neutral ground here in Denmark.

                I'm a big Froch fan as well but I got the feeling his was intimidated by the size of Kessler which is why are breaking through his guard with some solid punches, he backed off far to often and allow Kessler to re-roup and come back at him. Abe has a solid, high guard and has a very intimidating style which, the longer the fight goes on Abe will gradually wear Froch down and stop him late imo. But Froch has a chance If he really takes it to Abraham and doesn't back off when he's got his man rattled like he did vs Kessler.

                  He needs a real strategy and he needs to put in the performance of his life.

                  Pulling for him.

                    I think Froch takes this one actually. Will surely bet on him if the odds are right.

                      That last sentence of your signature is great.
