    Everytime AA throws one of his hay makers, with either hand, he drops his hand clear down by his waist. Bad move against JT. That sloppy **** works against Ouma and Joval's left overs. It will not work against Jermain Taylor.

    Who is Ouma leftovers? Jantuah? Who stopped a fresher Rubio 29 minutes faster than Pavlik? :think

    Invalid comparison. Rubio had not yet purchased those turbo charged track shoes when he fought Jantuah.:nono

    Pretty tough question actually. Got me thinking. Was Abraham Taylor's manditory? Who else would he have had to go through to get to Taylor? Taylor definitely would have stood a better chance before Pavlik and Froch softened him.

    Abraham is in trouble with Taylor. Major trouble. Jermaine can take him out pretty early.

    Jermaine's looping "bow-and-arrow" right hand is actually perfect to drill AA with. Go right around that tight guard. Abraham will have a lot of trouble getting close enough to do damage.

    lol

    As a huge fan of AA I don't like his chances against JT. However, I really hope that he KTFO JT. He then would be the second Euro bum to do so.

    It.s the same all over again and has been for many years. "I am wright, because US > EU" argument. But last time i checked, Calzaghe beat Hopkins and Jones, and Froch beat Taylor. But why "prime this prime that" or "what if" fights, when we just have to look forward to the super six - real fights who fighters will win and lose in the ring :huh

    Let´s see who is talking after the fight. :D

    PS: IF AA really looses I will be there and talk about it but I hope the haters have the balls to do the same when AA wins. :)

    It's debatable how much Taylor deserved his wins against Hopkins in the first place, but since he fought the best competition after that I always considered Taylor (and then Pavlik) to be the MW champ, not Abraham or Sturm. However, Abraham, while not being the true champ, was the #2 man in the division imo, right behind Taylor and later Pavlik. I always wanted to see Pavlik-Abraham happen, it's a shame for the fans and the MW division that fight never came of, well I guess seeing Abraham-Taylor now makes somewhat up for it.

    Anyways, I agree this is a 50/50 fight, Taylor is more skilled and he won't gas against Abraham (who isn't exactly a pressure fighter), but on the other side Taylors chin is mediocre at best and Abraham is a murderous puncher - I believe he's even stronger now at SMW then at MW. So Abraham has a punchers chance, but I'd say he has a HUGE punchers chance.

    Serenta the excuses have already been made, if AA wins Taylor is damaged goods, I am not going to look at like that.
