Froch v Abraham October 2nd in Monaco...

[CFH]

If Abraham opens up early and counters Froch, he will stop him. However, if he covers up for the first six rounds and lets Froch fire away, he'll be lucky to see the end of the fight. This is the most compelling fight in the Super 6 so far IMO. Depending on the way it plays out it could go either way. I think both fighters can hurt the other and it'll all come down to who fights the smarter fight.

I dont see this little power house that everyone else does in Abraham

I dont think he can deal with thye strength of the super middles. He was getting handled and pushed around quite easy by Dirrell and Andre is hardly a rough fighter.

The reason Abraham stops people late is because he conserves so much energy doing absolutely fuuck all during the rest of the fight. Froch can actually punch at this weight and I reckon is a bigger puncher than Dirrell who dropped Abraham but Froch will try to stop him where Andre didnt.

Abraham is strong but strong for a middleweight, he doesnt have the same advantage fighting genuine top super middles.

Its hard not to see a powerhouse when you consider Abraham has put 3 of his last 4 opponents in casualty. The guy's dangerous but I can see Froch winning rounds if he plays it cool and uses his pysical advantages. At first I thought his lack of defence would be his undoing and although he still has low hands I do think in his last fight he has shown that he keeps his chin tucked away better now and is positioned to absorb shots unlike before.

Its a great fight fight but a dangerous one for both guys.

I think Abraham kind of lulls fighters to sleep

...Man Miranda-Froch would be a hell of a brawl!

Do you think? Very entertaining while it lasted but Froch would smash Miranda for me within 6.

I think Abraham stops Froch somewhere between 6-9. That will have nothing to do with Froch being tired, because whatever else you say about him, he works extremely hard in training. I think Froch just has too much wear & tear from fights like Magee, Pascal, Taylor, Kessler & hell even the Dirrell fight he looked to be wobbled. In contrast, only the 1st Miranda fight & the Dirrell fight have seen Abraham taking any real punishment. I'm tempted to head out to this for the weekend to support Abraham, anyone know what the South of France is like that time of year?
