Lol the delicious irony.
AA fans blame the coach, it had nowt to do with froch's vastly superior skills.

Abraham has no head movement or footwork. Its like fighting a Clottey except Clottey throws better combinations.Comment

Abraham's trainer is out of his mind!! & he should be the 1 to blame for Abraham's performance!! Being a coward is 1 thing & not having a game plan & not being able to adjust is another!! Abraham is NO coward!! Just watch the 1st fight against Miranda where Abraham fought with a BROKEN JAW & many thought that fight should have been stopped!!! Yet Abraham fought on & won!! & against Froch, it was a case of Abraham being slow, stiff & defenseless & couldn't figure out the Froch that was hitting & moving..The way Froch fought is very different from the way he has fought in the past & probably Abraham trained to fight a more stable & hittable Froch that also likes to stay in the pocket & trade..That wasn't the case saturday night & it was obvious that Abraham didn't have a plan B, C or so on..In any case it's Abraham's trainer's fault that that didn't have his fighter prepare to handle different situations.. After the Dirrell fight they should have done some adjustments to deal with that type of a situation, cause from NOW ON that's gonna be the game plan to beat Abraham..It was like after De La Hoya fought Tito Trinidad, every one else that beat Trinidad used more or less that same strategy... I'm not saying that with a different game plan or with some adjustments Abraham could have beaten Froch, but at least he could have looked better & could have been more competitive..Last edited by Tomasio; 11-29-2010, 07:04 PM.Comment

I wasn't trying to take anything away from Froch that was a masterfull displayof boxing.
Regardless of who Abrahams coach was i think the outcome would be the same but i just feel he makes things hard for himself with his style.Comment

LOL. it's funny how many get brave and "speak up" happily trashing a fighter and acting like they thought that way the whole time once he has lost, but before fight time the brave were the ones supporting Froch as they were in the minority....i was sat squarely on the fence and proudly pulling splinters out my arse, hoping froch won because im british but having been a longer fan of abraham i wouldnt have been upset or suprised if he had KO'd froch....but the next day on boxing forums you would swear every man and their mother KNEW froch was winning the fight and they had all won massive money betting on him because there was no way the "exposed bum abraham" was going to beat froch....too funny...Comment

Reading your comments I can say that half of you guys are not even boxers...
When a boxer does not have an Option B in the ring and dont know what to do, he will never risk....
AA is not a coward...he fought a puncher Miranda with the broken jaw(in two places) for 7 rounds, he was spitting blood and didnt quit and wont that fight, and after someone calls him coward....GO F..K your self...
Froch used Klitchko's style to beat AA and it worked...jab jab jab ...
I just think, when a boxer is shirt and uses peekaboo style, it will be hard for him to do anything against jabs...short boxers gotta move a lot and use their both hands...
Look what happened with Karo Murat, he has the same peekaboo style and was successful when he fought short guys (because they dont have long jabs) but when he moved to light heavyweight and faced 6'2 Cleverly, he lost...Comment

Wegner's comments were the only thing that kept me excited during a boring, one-sided fight. It was hilarious but on the other hand Wegner should take a part of the blame too. He trained the guy for years and yet he never taught some head movement, decent footwork or how to slip a jab (well, I seriously doubt Wegner even knows about these things). AA would need that in the SMW division, where he is a really short fighter. But anyways he seems to be too old to learn it now. So Wegner should really take some responsibility for the loss, he may be funny, but his teaching is super outdated, the style he teaches is boring to watch. His so called gameplan did not work at all, his boxer appeared to be unprepared...Comment
