    How long ago was this?

    I think the most likely outcome is that Froch takes a few on the bonce early doors but grinds Dirrell down and clubs him to defeat later on in the fight.

    Think you could be on it there. Dirrell will trouble him with speed but will run out of power for me and won't have enough to hold Froch off. I thought Froch had a bad defense, i think Dirrell can challenge him for that trophy all day....

    Both have a defence out of the Kirkland Laing school

    Well that was a proper knockdown from a proper shot. Don't think I'd call someone "chinny" from that.

    He sure did look ropey in that fight but looks much better since then. Obviously improved.

    Starting to think Froch will grind him down as well.

    The more I watch and read about Dirrell the more I think Froch will beat him.

    Starting to think he might not handle 7,000 Brits booing the fuck out of him at 2am in the morning.

    He will have to dominate a lot of rounds considering the crowd will be roaring every little success Froch has.

    I don't think its great, but I thought Pascal's was crap coming into the Froch fight.

    I think it has to do more with how he handles the overall pressure mentally.

    To the Froch-haters: will a win over Dirrell win you over?

    Not that you'll like him as a person because at times he comes off like a douche, but I mean what does he have to do to win you over as a boxer. Back-to-back-to-back wins over Pascal, Jermain, and Dirrell is impressive anyway you slice it.

    It's odd but for me he is one of the most beatable of the fighters in the tournament and also one of the the most dangerous. It's entirely unpredictable. We know he is vulnerable but we also know he has heart and grit.
