Abraham - Dirrell fight thread

[Hunter]

Dirrell has the speed and power to really bother abraham, the question is whether he can keep up the pace for 12 rounds while the bull Abraham comes at him. Dirrell seriously buzzed Froch so he has some pop (plus he has blinding speed so his punches are hard to see). I am hoping Dirrell learned from the Froch fight that he shouldnt be afraid to sit down, hold his ground and let those hands go.....I believe Andre could have stopped froch if he stood his ground more and threw those combos, but I think he was nervous being on the big stage and maybe was unsure if he could take the shots from Froch so played keep away a bit too much.

I think Abraham will start slow as usual, the flashy dirrell with take rounds early and dirrell WILL have the stamina to keep it up for 12 rounds. I am also thinking Dirrell will hurt/buzz Arthur at some point in the fight....

I have Dirrell by a decision.

AA win win a decision, Dirrell to blow it again.

Don't think you're right. I say that Arthur will end the fight before the final bell.
