Dirrell laid out the blueprint on how to beat AA

With AA, once punch is all it takes

Agree that Dirrell laid out a way to beat AA but Froch is not the type of boxer to really be able to do that. I can see Ward having the talent and skill set to repeat but not Froch.

Sounds good Carl.

Bye Bye Abe!!!

1 punch huh? You obviously didnt see the fight because while he did get knocked down, it was because he was off balance and started to catch up to Dirrell after that

AA has a GREAT chin and GREAT power and Froch gets caught

Dirrell outboxed him in a way that Froch cant so i see a KO for AA if he goes after Froch or a UD if he does his usually routine slow start

Thats the bottom line right there. Not saying Froch can't win but he isn't going to win the way Dirrell did and out AA the same way. The only guys who I think could really build on what Dirrell did were Taylor (who's out of the tourney) and Ward. Froch has to find different way to win.

Everybody knew how to beat AA. Only Dirrell has had the skills to carry out that plan. No way Froch can fight in the same way, so he has to find a new way of winning against AA.

Taking it to the body seems like a good idea for starters. Froch also has a good chin and a winners mentality. I'm just not sure that Froch is fast enough of foot to outsmart AA over the distance so he's going to eat some leather.

Should be the best fight of the next round I'm sure.

Someone said Dirrell is featherfisted.

Did he not hurt Froch in their fight and force him to balance himself on the ropes?

I'm rooting for Abraham.

Froch needs to realise that his macho approach in the ring does not always pay off. He really needs to focus on getting his fundamentals to scratch. He could keep Abraham at bay a majority of the fight, but his bravado always takes over, and he wants to go to war. He had moments in the Pascal and Kessler fights where he was doing the right thing in leading with a jab, picking bodyshots and shooting straights when necessary.....taking a lot of shots himself is doing no favours, especially when Abe carries one punch KO power.

Former super middleweight champion Carl Froch wants to send a strong message when he takes on Arthur Abraham in the third tier of the Super Six Boxing Classic. In his recent Nottingham Post column, Froch didn't touch too much on the venue dispute for the fight. Instead he went into detail on how he plans to win.

yeah right....pfft frochs jab is a load of ****....and the only decent thing about him is that he has a decent offence and good chin...either then that in the late rounds when hes got nothing left arthur will turn up the heat and then land a hayemaker on that chin and then BOOM!....down goes froch and does not get back up..

[NChristo]

Froch's silky smooth skills and cobra like jab can win this for him for sure.
