    Kessler and Ward is set.

    Who are you all picking? I'm from Cali, so I got to pick the local boy.

    Yeah i'd agree, 9/10 round atoppage for Abraham, but he needs to not get caught cold in the early rounds as he is a slow starter

    Dirrell Froch is toss-up because of the technique vs. power. Ward is going to get his ass handed to him. Kessler via late round TKO.

    This fight is very interesting also because of the styles clash.

    If Andre Ward can keep Kesslers jab away and stay away from the power punches then this could be a FOTY candidate.

    Ward is very talented; fast, tricky, punches from any angle and hes very good at judging distance.

    But Kessler is more experienced, has power, speed, a good chin etc. and he has perhaps the best jab and 1-2 in boxing.

    Kessler wins this.

    kessler withought a doubt, hes my pick for the tornament. inactivity has made us forget how good he is.. been watching him against jc and them upper cuts he was whipping in... shiiiiiit they were different gravy ,and his all round skill is second to none.

    Toss up all you like. The bookies and ESB polls suggest Froch by a wide margin. Froch will be the clear victor in this one. :good
