Froch v Abraham press pics staredown!

[Cressa121]

about a minute in, Dirrell goes back against the ropes and lands a left hand that visibly rocks Froch, he backs up into the ropes with his hands up. If you watch the video in between the rounds too it shows the punch again in slow motion. There you go, Dirrell hurting Froch Not that this was overly significant in the fight IMO, its not like Froch was on the verge of being stopped or anything, he recovered pretty quickly and finished the round throwing punches. But he was visibly rocked by that left hand.

point is Dirrell landed shots like that one more than once, the only thing is the jittery bastard wouldn't follow up, i never said he was in danger of getting stopped, but that's more due to Dirrell's lack of punches more than it was Froch's chin, IMO Froch has a very average chin at best

Many people with average chins get stopped. But Froch has been fighting the best in the world, more so than many other opponents and yet, he doesn't get stopped. Such an average chin.

Are you possibly talking shit?

[erics44]

On a serious note, I just can't see a man as powerful as AA not finding Frochs button at some stage.

AA was knocked down by Dirrell, so is vulnerable himself and Froch can dig.

Dirrell hurt Froch on more than one occasion himself, the knockdown didn't come cause of Froch's foul shots and Dirrell's hugging, if he would have let his hands go he would have dropped him as well, and also Taylor had Froch badly hurt on the canvas as well

AA has the faster hands, and Froch doesn't use his height, i'm thinking Abraham by TKO

ha ahahahaahahah ah ahha ha hahahaah aha hahhaahaahhahaha hahaha hahahaha

case and point

show me 1 occasion where dirrell rocked froch

show me frochs foul shots

froch went down against taylor but he wasnt badly hurt, it was a solid knockdown yes, but badly hurt he wasnt

those three views together as a cumulative outlook was the reason your post was so funny

are you fucking serious? every shot Froch landed low and on the back of Dirrell's head were fouls, not including the slam he did, and just rewatch the fight without your Brit glasses on and you'll see clearly when Froch gets wobbled badly

as for against Taylor, Jermaine had Froch in all sorts of trouble, he did the exact opposite of what he did against Pavlik when he hurt him, he dropped him then backed off

your blindness due to nationalistic pride is what i find incredibly hilarious

im not rewatching the fight it was poo

i think you should take your own advice about the glasses tho

i enjoyed the taylor fight and i have watched it a few times and he didnt have him in all sorts of trouble, there was no fear of a stoppage, he went down yes but got back up as strong as ever

Miles, Dirrell isn't known as a big puncher and neither was Taylor, both guys had Froch badly hurt, if Abraham gets him in that sort of trouble i find it highly unlikely that Froch will last the full 12 rounds, so how is that talking shit?

as for you, well i'm not a Brit nor am i partial to American fighters, the fact is two guys not known for having power hurt Froch badly, Froch beat Taylor because Jermaine gassed himself out and then Froch was able to capitalize on it, like i said in the Dawson/Pascal thread, i wouldn't be shocked if Pascal was to whip Froch in a rematch, same way i'm not gonna be shocked if Abraham stretches him out

Stand corrected on what? Thats a clear of example of Dirrell hurting Froch in the fight, something you said never happened. He landed punches like that throughout the fight, though none had the same kind of impact on Froch, and like ElTerrible said he was too jittery to follow up when he did land solidly. I don't think he was hurt again in the fight, but then I thought the whole issue here was whether or not he was hurt at all, not the amount of times it happened.

I wouldn't say Froch's chin is average, he can take a good punch as he's proved in the past, but I don't think he's impregnable and he has been hurt on occasions before. I'll definitely be pulling for him to win this fight, but at the moment I leaning towards AA by stoppage

Come on mate that is bullshit average at best?

Kessler was landing at will and couldn't make a dent theres is a reason he has a nose like the wicked witch of the west off The Wizard Of Oz, he uses his face as his defense to say his chin is average at best is way off mate, come on lets have it right he has a decent chin that is not Oliver McCall solid but is of a decent standard.

froch has a granit chin that is clear

i dont agree with you on the kes thing tho, he landed one hard punch in the fight, and its debatable whether that was too hard

from your first paragraph, i stand correctted coz i said he didnt rock him and he did

elterrible said it happened a lot in the fight and i asked if it happened again

a lot of people are leaning towards AA by stoppage and it could happen, i think it will go the other way

[El Kabong]

I don't care how good his chin is Froch's DEFENSE is what will get him in trouble with Abraham. Froch is a fun fighter to watch but the style match up is bad...you saw that Kessler landed at will on him and no one knows if Kessler is anywhere near his best anymore.

Should be a fun fight to watch no matter the outcome, but I predict Abraham stopping Froch mid to late

froch has a granit chin that is clear

i dont agree with you on the kes thing tho, he landed one hard punch in the fight, and its debatable whether that was too hard

So we have gone from one extreme to another

So now it is granite it aint either, Dirrell had him wobbled but him on his bike let him off the hook, Jermiane Taylor had him on the deck, the same Taylor who has not knocked down or ko'd any other opponent he has fought at 168, it aint Ganite it is decent/good.

Granite chins don't get put on the deck from not very hard hitting fighters who were career middleweights.

Jesus christ what fucking fight are you watching? Hahaha your of your head mate one clean shot.

yep his chin is granit, you dont get much better, the amount of punches he takes?

admittedly I didnt remeber dirrell hurting him

I dont wanna get into the froch kes debate really, id be happy to watch any vids you want to post of kes hitting him at will tho

Where did I say he hit him at will??

Kessler found the button on at least 6-10 occasions in that fight I remmeber two peaches of left hooks and a straight right without watching it, which would of put other fighters down. I actually think Froch landed the more eye cathing shots overall in the fight.

post 38

i didnt see those punches, but i dont want to get into the debate because we've done it before

i thought froch won and you didnt
