Carl Froch - Andre Dirrell

[skel1983]

I agree I think Dirrell is in to deep to soon, hes talanted but talent alone doesnt get you to where you want to be.

Froch from what I have seen has been very under rated against Dirrell and like you say Tam hes going into Frochs backyard, im going Froch to catch up and knock him out in the 10th.

[Master]

No nothing of Dirrell but he sounds very confident and says Froch is the easiest of the fighters in the tournament. Hope he is wrong.

[Violent Demise]

Dirrell is not in over his head. He's only facing Carl Fraud. If he was facing Kessler or maybe Taylor than yeah he would be. But he's not. Plus he's 26 years old. It's time for him to make his move. Dirrell speed and reflexes are off the charts. And he hasn't shown any stamina problems. So unless he gets DQ'ed or just straight robbed I see no reason he doesn't move to 19-0.

wow...


this is like a free win for dirrell

[Hunter]

Froch is far from a top tier boxer....I pick dirrell by KO....

[Gandalf]

It's a fight that I think could go either way. I will be hoping Froch can pull it off, but he does too many tihngs wrong and I can see it catching up sooner rather than later. Hopefully not against Dirrell though.

[Majesty]

Dirrell is facing Froch first and Ward is facing Kessler first I personally hope both Dirrell and Ward win.

I agree with you VD, Carl Froch is a fraud seeing as he just beat the current WBC 175 Champion and he just KTFO Jermain Taylor the former 160 king, I am in full agreement that he is a fruad

[kingfrnk]

this is a good fight. i think froch might win it down the stretch. if not then dirrel UD

[Phil]

tbh I haven't seen much of Dirrell, but Im really not impressed with Froch,
I think he overrates his chin and his defence is awful, both Kess and Abraham
would take him out, I'd even fancy Taylor in a rematch...

You mean the guy FRoch did this too?

[denilson200]

To me Carl Froch is an average world champion and Dirrell would not have to be top draw to beat him and it wouldn't surprise me if Froch comes bottom of the table. I think his hands held low style will come back to haunt him.

Who does he think he is ?

You have to have lightening fast reflexes to get away with that. Also his one-punch at a time (A-La F.Mayweather Jnr) doesn't work for him as he doesn't punch quick or accurate enough for it. Even I can see that crazy uppercut move he keeps trying to pull off coming. I see the two young up-coming guys in Dirrell and Ward dominating this competition.

Froch should have more than enough in his armour to see off dirrell and i expect a comfortable points decision. Ive seen 4-5 dirrell fights so far and am not buying him for 1 minute. He`s the weakest of the 6 and fighting the 2nd best of the 6.

The same people on here that think dirrell will beat froch are the same type that believed lacys journey to britain to fight JC was merely a formality and a way to get him over to the european public.


froch by quite a considerable margin

As appose to the Brits who thought Hatton's pressure would overcome Mayweather's speed, right? Chances are Dirrell-Fraud will look more like Mayweather-Hatton than Calzaghe-Lacy

...as i wrote in another post. This sadly will be a boring fight. Direll wont engage froch, and froch is too slow to do anything about it. Direll will pot shot the hell out of this man for 12 rounds no matter how loud we boo he'll take an easy decision. Ask curtis stevens, the same thing happened to him when he was a threat to direll.
