    He's been dropped by a natural middleweight (who Abraham said had no power) and then wobbled late by dirrell (who all of you say has no power). His chin is still under investigation IMO. After kessler lands some of those straight rights on it then we will see what type of chin he has. It could be that he just gets hit by those unseen punches and also while he is swinging which adds to the impact and the suprise factor.

    Let me guess, then Bute's going to beat Ward, right?

    My bet on Dirrell-Ward is that it won't happen, especially if Dirrell beats Abraham. And relax about Froch...he and Kessler match up even in many categories, but the straight punches will beat the wide ones.

    :good Exactly as I see it, although I think there's a good chance Dirrell could upset Abraham to an MD or UD based on his longer reach and defensive-mindedness.

    Logic dictates that Kessler wins this one, but Kessler will have had to

    1) Admit to himself that he lost to a better fighter in Ward.
    2) Find his footing mentally after this (which is hard when you in your own self image was the No1 fighter in the world and then have to admit to yourself that that is not the case).
    3) Add new aspects to your game to prevent Froch from taking advantage of the GIANT flaws in your style (as demonstrated by the Calzaghe and Ward fights).

    I see the Froch - Kessler fight going the distance, maybe. Mainly because the two of them have good chins.

    Abraham will not get KO'd imo, the man is a warrior and his chin is solid. Will never forget him fighting on with a broken jaw and still pulled out the win.

    Both Ward and Dirrell fought at 165 prior to the 2004 olympics. Ward moved up to 178 for the olympics, because he did not want to compete against his friend Dirrell at 165, even though Dirrell is the one who is bigger. After the Froch fight, Dirrell wanted an immediate rematch, which tells me his mind was not on the tournament, but on a belt. If Dirrell were to beat Abraham, he will have won a title as he's always dreamed. I would not be surprised if he were to then set his sights on a belt at 175 (Dawson or Cloud). He and Ward do not want to fight each other.

    Abraham doesn´t hold a title and Dirrell has to face Ward to win the belt.

    I don´t know what´s the problem with Dirrell-Ward and I´m looking forward to see this fight.

    Dirrell v Abraham - Dirrell SD
    Kessler v Froch - Kessler UD
    Ward v Green - Ward UD

    Kessler v Green - Kessler UD
    Froch v Abraham - Abraham KO
    Ward v Dirrell - Ward UD

    Which for me would make;

    Ward 6pts
    Abraham 6pts
    Kessler 4 pts
    Froch 2pts
    Dirrell 2pts
    Green 2pts

    (I presume that means Froch would go through due to head to head against Dirrell?)

    So, I'd go;

    Ward v Froch - Froch SD
    Abraham v Kessler - Kessler UD

    Kessler v Froch - Kessler UD.
