Froch V Dirrell. The start of the 'Super six tourney' - 12 October 2009 18:29 ( #1 )
Whos going to win the fight that starts this comp rolling?
 
Its for the Froch,s title too so its a big fight indeed.
 
Betting market averages out at Froch 4/7 with Dirrell 11/8. No massive Fav here!
 
My view is that it could be very much like the Taylor fight with Dirrell raking up points. Qustion being can Froch land a big one to stop him?
 
My view, Dirrell on points..
 
Should be a very good fight whatever the results.

I quite liked froch until he came out with some disrespectful comments in the weekends paper.

He claimed if he was boxing in the same era as hagler, leonard and hearns, he would have beat them all.

He said hagler was just a brawler but he would have had the technical skills to beat him. What technical skills? Keeping your hands closer to your waist than your chin?

He then also said he had skill just like sugar ray and believe he could have beat him.

He then went on to say he had a stronger chin than tommy hearns etc etc.

That pissed me of...

If, and i stress if Froch has said the above then i wish to change my prediction because its obvious the boy has been on the crack pipe.

Hagler, Hearns and Leonard would have destroyed him comfortably.

In fact they would have destroyed the whole bunch of this super 6 tournament comfortably.

Froch has to be one of  the worst 'boxers' I've ever seen.....big balls though. I can't see Froch doing very well at all in this comp

Froch to win the whole thing IMO

Leonard was no great shakes at the time he was fighting at the weight. That is all.

1987 to 1989 Leonard would have beaten Froch comfortably IMO.

I think Leonard could have took the fight at 168 and come in at around 160, used his ringcraft and boxing ability to make Froch look a bit wooden on the way to a UD.

I don't really take arrogance and trash talking seriously from fighters.

They know it sells tickets so there's no way of knowing how genuine it is.

You're right though, it really doesn't suit him.

He is clearly on the WUM and only interested in selling tickets.

Trust me, he said it!

Leonard would have destroyed froch! Hagler would have outstrengthed him, and easily knocked him out. Hearns would simply ko him.

How can he claim to beat these fighters, when he cant keep his hands up? He has got into a terrible habit of leaving himself open, no matter how many times his corner tells him to get his hands up they soon fall closer to his waist.

Kessler is a totally different league to froch, so for that reason, froch cant win this tournament!
