    I keep going back and forth on this fight too. It's either going to end in an AA knockout or a wide decision for Froch. AA's style can be outworked easily but that also gives AA many opportunities to knock you out with one shot if you're not elusive enough. Froch is not the most elusive fighter and he comes to fight so I see this fight ending in a knockout by AA.

His only loss was to Dirrell, and if that fight went any longer, Dirrell would have got KTFO. And I'm a big Dirrell supporter. Froch is going to get KO'd. Mark my words. Jermain Taylor dumped him on his ass, and Abraham hits MUCH harder than Jermain Taylor. With Froch's always evident lack of defense, Abraham is NOT going to miss. I wouldn't be surprised if it happened in the first half of the fight, either.
        It was a close fight could have gone either way. Taylor was done and had already been stopped by Froch and before that was stopped by Pavlik.

        AA has no notable wins for which anyone can claim he is world class, and though he can crack he does nothing in the 1st half of fights so I doubt any early ko is likely.

        AA can still prove himself with a win here over a proven top 168lber though but as of now he has not effectively made his case.

            So a KO/stoppage of Froch will be insufficient as well, I'm guessing?

              Yes, I will be sold if he stops the Cobra I mean Kessler won a narrow decision over the guy so stopping him would really say something especially since he is know for having a good chin.

                How on Earth can you say Froch has a good chin? What evidence do you have of this? He got dropped by Taylor @168lbs! What? Because Dirrell and Kessler didn't drop him as well? Newsflash: Those two guys aren't huge punchers! Abraham is! Froch is going to be exposed, mark my words. (Although I feel he already has been over the course of his last two fights.) He had BETTER tighten up his defense if he wants this fight to go the distance.

                      Froch is going to destroy AA.
