I'm still none the wiser who's going to win this fight. Froch is a better boxer than I initially thought, and posesses a caveman-like cunning and will to win that I think could hold him in very good stead for this fight, but man oh man can Abraham ****! Won't make a prediction either way, just hope that it's a great fight.Comment

Taylor did look awesome in the opening rounds, but if you remember Taylor gassed himself out going after Pavlik when he had him down and was criticised for doing so. That was probably in the back of his mind. There's also the fact that Froch didn't take the knockdown lying down (no pun intended) but fought back immediately. It wasn't like he was lurching all over the ring ready to be taken, and Taylor just holds back or anything. He was still dangerous.Comment

True. I only really realised this after watching the Kessler fight. He was doing quite a lot of good work off the back foot and keeping Kessler at bay with the jab. It's not his natural zone, though, but if he finds he has to (protecting a lead in the closing rounds for instance) I think he can keep Abraham off him.
Abraham, on the other hand, has great timing which he calculates specifically for his opponents in the opening rounds, when it looks like he's doing nothing. When he throws a big shot it almost always lands and lands big. Froch will get hurt in this fight. The question is will he be stopped or will it spur him on?
And away from Germany what effect will body shots have on the outcome?Comment
