    Far from it. I am just weary of page 3 stuff being eulogized to all get out.

    No BS...I have seen Hungarian sluts take a 19" cock in their anus that were better looking than her.

    English totty is very very overrated.

    Exactly. He's just a low-variety 160lbr that outgrew 160 and probably liked the cash they were offering him at 168. At least he didn't lose to Sergio Martinez and wind up in the fucking Priory.

    Xplosive what are you talking about?

    You're acting like Arabham usually throws punches.

    He fought like he always does - plodding around like a retard, throwing the occasional telegraphed dead weight retard punch.

    He is horrible.

    Yeah maybe 2-3 years ago. Find me a thread, where I pick Abraham to win in the last three months.

    I even predicted correctly that Froch wouldn´t try to rough him up and make it a dirty inside fight, but just outbox him from long range with the jab. I knew when Froch could box with Kessler, that he could do that to Abraham, but I did expect Abraham to come on late and make it very close on the scorecards.

    Nah. His style works perfectly in some fights and less so in others. That's all. I mean, why flog it to death? He's a small 168lbr with a stinky style that hasn't translated well at the weight.

    Well sounds like a dull fight.

    Hopefully Marquez-Katsidis can save the night, and give us fire works.

    False. Jermaine Taylor had a jab. He was also a former MW.

    You see.....like I keep telling you, it is a combination of the factors.

    A world champion skillless bum with wins over Taylor & Miranda who had Dirrel on the deck and probably would have KO'd him. And who hurt Froch notably in the final round of that one, too.

    Right. Skilless bum

    You don't know what you're watching with Abraham's mate.

    You need to be front and centre in the impending crow thread X. You have been ripping on Froch for years and he just beat the living shit outta your boy there.

    Froch deserves major props for that fight. He was fucking excellent. Abraham ate jab after jab and tons of body shots all fight long. By the tenth, Abraham was in complete survival mode- he couldn't get inside at all, couldn't land anything on Froch at all and was being hit often and hard.

    That is Froch's FOURTH elite level win in five attempts, and his only loss was away from home in a very close affair. The guy is completely unorthodox but has proven himself world class.

    Fair play to him...

    Plenty of times. I thought it would be like the Taylor fight, with AA losing early, but coming on mid rouds and then taking out Frochy late. I was wrong.

    In an odd way I was disappointed by both of them. Abraham, because he simply wouldn't let his hands go earlier, as he did in the 12th, and Froch because the KO was there and he wouldn't go for it- in fact he lost the 12th and maybe, just maybe, was hanging on a bit.

    One thing is for sure, neither Froch, Abraham, Dirrell, Ward or Johnson would make acceptable, likeable champions, for different reasons.

    This is a spoiler thread. I'll get around to making a crow thread later tonight, probably after I watch the HBO card.

    Exactly. Like I said, Abraham's wasn't more passive than normal because Froch was so skilled, it was because Froch was much physically stronger and hit way harder than Abraham's clearly expected. Without those factors the fight looks like the 12th did, with Froch on the back foot being stalked, and wobbly legged much earlier.

    Very good win for Froch.

    Fair enough.

    Carl looked decent too, but it was pretty easy for him to look good seeing as Arabham was basically a walking punch bag.

    And he is white. I fucking love him!!!

    J/K

    As I was saying earlier, and as Hut picked up on, he is like the 168lb Vitali, just talks more and not as hard-hitting, but stylistically, he is the same.

    same low, left hand, weird shots, very cagey, but effective.

    For the sounds of it... this fight sounds real Lewis-Tua-ish.

    A loss and a win over Miranda, and a win over a basically shot Taylor.

    Who has he beaten?

    I think his win over shot Taylor is literally his best win.

    The guy is a scrub, he made Frock look like Sugar Ray Leonard, and Frock isn't exactly a great boxer. He looks like a clumsy oaf most of the time.

    Arabham has NO skill, none at all. He literally has less skill the Plasterito.

    Plasterito cuts off the ring better, has better punch variety, and less telegraphed punches.

    Arabham is fairly tough and can punch, and because he lacks skill, has has to wait for his opponent to get tired before KOing them.

    He really is like the real life Homer the boxer.

    :rolleyes:

    Froch was in trouble for precisely four seconds at the start of the round and not a milli-second more. Let's not exaggerate here.

    You got this pick right. But clearly for all the wrong reasons. You don't know what you're watching with Abraham's mate. The low output is quite deliberate and it works in walking down and wearing out allot of guys. He'll beat good fighters in the future. It clearly doesn't work when he can't physically bully his opponent. That's a key ingredient.

    If he can he'd be best off back at Middleweight.

    Agreed, people are acting like he was knocked down and almost out.

    He didn't even come close to getting knocked down, let alone out.

    In fact, Taylor, Pascal and Kessler all buzzed Frock more than Arabham did.

    Not really. Froch dominated behind his jab but threw a lot of other shots, including numerous excellent body-head-body-head combos which caused most of the damage.
