    Boxing fans-The most fickle in the world!

    I could dig up 100's of threads of people saying not only would Froch lose against Abraham but he would get badly KO'd. Froch puts on a masterful peformance and now there is all kinds of excuses. I have read everything from "Abraham being too small for 168" to "Abraham is shot", i have even read "Abraham's heart not in it anymore" (LOL @ the last one). Its funny how with abit of hindsight people become boxing experts yet before the fight the very same people predicted Abraham would "destroy Froch".

    Just eat some humble pie and admit you got it badly wrong and give Froch some credit because that was a masterclass he put on last night....

    I agree.

    I had a small (real money) bet on Abraham to win. It doesn't bother me a bit that I got it wrong. You show me a person who picks every fight correctly, and I'll show you a fucking liar.

    I did have a bet on Litzau at +925, though (posted in the ******** thread in the lounge). /brag

        I just chalk it up as it just being the net. When you talk boxing face to face all that nonsense foes out the window.

        And also alot of times dudes like to shock post.

            Froch put on a perfect display of boxing other than a few times he got a little careless but the truth is that AA is just not that good and never was.

              nobody knew froch could box like that if he wanted to... that said, dirrell provided the blueprint and AA is short for 168 lbs and he has a terrible trainer/corner and he is one-dimensional

                  I have plenty of prior posts saying that and ppl said I was a hater. AA was never that good and never beat any world class fighters. Taylor was shot and doesn't count even though he could have been even with him going into the 12th.
