    Froch beats Abaraham in a competetive match.

    Taking bets when they find out where the match will take place. As long it's not in Germany.

      They both have slow feet, again I think Abrahams feet are faster when he chooses to move rather than shell up.

            damw it froch you better not *** this up for me, i picked this fight to be the best one of the tourrnament. BTW when dirrell did it against him froch called it running and bs, when he did it aganst Abraham he calls it sticking and moving and a great gameplan.

              I think Froch can stand up to Abrahams punches to be honest, never really seen him in bad trouble.
              Froch will try to box him on the outside as he did with Kessler, and it actually worked to some degree, he was able to dodge a lot of punches. I don't see Abaraham as the most accurate puncher nor the fastest puncher, but he is able to hit hard, still I'd say his punching power is extremely overrated and I think Froch can stand toe to toe with him, I actually see Froch winning this and I think it'll be more comfortable than many people think. It's a bet I'm gonna take for sure, unless it's in Germany.

              What's your thoughts?

                That's true he did, only problem is Froch fights nothing like Dirrell.

                  With his style I dont see it happening
                  Why is he gonna fight him like Dirrell and taylor did? Punch and run.
                  I think he needs to do like kessler. come forward, take some chances. Make Abraham go back. thats the spirit!

                    The difference between both Dirrell performances is that he had confidence to actually fight and trade at times against Abraham. He did none of this in the Froch fight. More then anything though, i think it helped as he had zero big-fight experience pre-Froch, so you could tell the nerves got to him.

                    You could see overcame this in the Abraham fight, and i think his confidence and skill will improve as the tounament goes on. Only thing in question is his heart. I think he can win the whole thing. I have Dirrell beating Ward.

                      Arthur had a bad night at the office in Dirrell's hometown, and he was STILL coming on and looked to me to be headed for a late KO of Dirrell when the fight ended. One loss and so many people have already given up on AA: how fickle boxing fans truly are! I like both Froch and Arthur, but I think Arthur is going to stop Frochy no matter where the fight is held. Froch seems really jumpy and nerved-up about this fight already.
