QUOTE (Maxy @ Nov 25 2010, 02:05 PM)  Yeah but the only reservation I have about Carls mental strength is it borders on bravado and Abraham is the wrong fighter to get overly brave against. Froch is the sort of bloke who thinks "You sayin' I can't go toe to toe with you? You questioning my manhood?" Thats what has made me a fan of his. Tough Sum-Bitch! I picked him by decision. He'll win enough early rounds and do enough to keep Abraham away in the late rounds when he tries to come on strong. You'll have to knock Froch out cold(which Abraham is capable of) before he stops fighting. |

Bloody JLuv made me watch that, I'm expecting a guy to look away first quickly. I don't think I saw anybody look away until the fat guy with the belt jumped in the middle. Next time, just give us the result, lol.

I've been picking Abraham by KO ever since this fight was announced, but the closer it gets the more I lean toward Froch to frustrate and out work the King in a fight that disappoints a lot of folks expecting a brutal slugfest. I hope I'm wrong on all counts. I like Abraham. Dude seems like such an asshole it's funny to me.

Well it never turned out to be a war because Carl was bang on top of his game, fought the perfect fight, totally sensible, totally controlled. He wanted to put Abraham out of there but his corner, Robert McCracken, made certain that he kept his head. Proper good, his discipline was way better than I thought it would be but I'm delighted to fuck. War Froch!!!! |
