    i'll explain why.

    1. Abrahams power at 168 is questionable

    Sounds crazy but it is, he ktfo Taylor, but lets be honest Taylor was probably already brain-damaged in that fight, and he still took a lot of shots and almost finished. Dirrell, well he may of been faking for all we know, plus even if he wasnt he's chinny and was compromised. Froch has an iron chin, much better than those two.

    2. Size Difference

    Froch is 4-5 inches taller than Abraham, this is an obvious advantage if he uses his height and doesn't resort to crouching and brawling.

    3. Abrahams Chin

    He was down twice against Dirrell, (onto the ropes the second time) Abe has a legendary chin, but it was smashed by Miranda, and wear and tear may be setting in.
    Some good points there. ****, i can't pick between the 2 now.

      Abraham knock downs from Dirrells were more due to him being off balance, he was never really hurt like how Dirrell stunned Froch but will Froch chin last against Abraham's power?

        If Froch get in exchanges, throwing those wide shots, he's hitting the deck. I think Froch has a chance but I honestly think he's going to get caught.

            AA ia gonna put a hurting on Froch for sure..

            AA will be fighting to regain respect that he lost and Froch will be trying to KO AA with bombs, opening himself up to a big counter right and get dropped and stopped for the first time in his career

              thats ******ed

              1. his power is not questionable at all. he KTFO taylor. he wasnt brain damaged. plus JT has a good chin to begin with. he was taking huge shots from pavlik too...

              2. this is the only logical thing u said , and i doubt it will have a big effect. unlike dirrell, froch is a come forward guy, he wont be using his height. i doubt AA will have trouble pinning him

              3. both dirrell knockdowns were OFF BALANCE shots. his chin is solid, his skin tissue swelling very possible tho


              AA by TKO late

                  I feel strongly that Abraham will win a decision. He is the better fighter, but Froch has a very strong will and I don't think he'll be stopped.

                    I agree. I think this is definitely Froch's fight to win. I think he needs to stay active though. he's not going to out box Abraham like Dirrell was doing or he'll get KTFO, so he just needs to stay on him and hope to land first. Open up that defense by taking the first few rounds by being more active. Then once Abraham's behind I think he'll open up more, and thats where I think Froch starts to drop him and eventually knock him out.

                    I got Froch in 7+ rounds. But I wouldn't put money on it because Abraham could easily land & KO Froch too.

                      Froch on points for a variety of reasons, but I won't point them out right now.

                      Froch won't let Abraham win a decision, AA will have to win by knockout, so I like Carl's chances.
