    Oh so when Pac beats an exposed fighter, it's the biggest injustice boxing has ever seen, but when froch does it, in the exact same way somebody else just did, it's a masterful performance?

      Yeah man. Just like Martinez vs Williams. That fight was still memorable though.

        What happened instead was a replay of Abraham-Dirrell.
        Yea I thought the same thing, but Froch fought a smart fight, he knew if he brawled with AA he'd probably get KO'd. But I was hoping for the same thing as you bruh.

          Nobody was as disappointed as I was, but I'm not some bandwagonner who's gonna stop supporting Abraham. He really has to do something amazing against Ward to redeem himself though.


          I blame Froch, we could have had a war if he decided to engage in a brawl. I kid, he gave Abraham a boxing lesson, one that I was hoping he had learned from the Dirrell fiasco but alas I was wrong.

                Yea AA is not gonna beat Ward, its gonna be same type of fight as the Froch fight but probably worse since Ward is much faster an quicker then Froch, every1 respects AA power an chin, so i expect Ward to jab him an pot shot his body all fight long. But i think he should go down to middle w8 cause his reach isnt that great an he doesnt posses the speed an agility to slip punches.

                  You blame Froch for AA not throwing punches? When they did get in close Froch was still battering Arthur.

                  You're on glue son

                    Yes because like everyone said it wasn't the brawl we were expecting. Also no, I was impressed with the way Froch boxed because I didn't think he had it in him. I only knew the come forward brawl type of Froch, he really showed something else with his performance.

                      It wasn't the way I saw it planning out but it was a serious schooling.
