Froch hopes Abraham will come out of the fight with Dirrell unbeaten
WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch commented on the upcoming Abraham-Dirrel fight during the Super Six World Boxing Classic.
"Dirrel is a fast, slippery, negative operator. Abraham likes to cover much of the time and only fights in brief spurts in every round When Abraham makes his attacks in the last 30 seconds, Dirrell may be ready for him and will chop him up with shoes," he said.
However, Froch hopes that Abraham will come out of the fight with Dirrell unbeaten.
He doesn't think that Dirrell will bee opening up with his offence very much against Abraham. "It would be a shame for Abraham and a shame for boxing if Dirrell used the same tactics to shad a very slim verdict," he said hinting at Dirrel's clinching, boxingnews24.com reported.
