    GS1: Fight 3: Kessler tko10 Ward - 3 pts(3)

    GS2: Fight 1: Dirrell SD Abraham - 2 pts (2/3)

    GS2: Fight 2: Kessler TKO7 Froch - 3pts(6/2)

    GS2: Fight 3: Ward UD Taylor - 2pts (2)

    GS3: Fight 1: Ward UD Dirrell - 2pts (4/2)

    GS3: Fight 2: Abraham UD Froch 2pts (5/2)

    GS3: Fight 3: Kessler KO 4 Taylor 3 pts(9/0)



    Top Seed: Kessler 9pts
    2nd Seed: Abraham 5 pts
    3rd Seed: Ward 4 pts
    4th Seed: Froch 2 pts

    I'm putting Froch in ahead of Dirrell becase he's beaten him. I'm not sure if that's the correct way, though.

    Semi-Final Fight 1: Kessler TKO5 Froch

    Semi-Final Fight 2: Ward SD Abraham

    Final: Kessler UD Ward

    It really seems inevitable that the semis will wind up involving at least one rematch.

    Very similar to earlier postings, but I'm bored...

    Stage 1

    Taylor - Abraham [Abraham KO = 3pts]
    Froch - Dirrell [Froch SD = 2pts]
    ---
    Kessler - Ward [Kessler UD = 2pts]

    Stage 2

    Dirrell - Abraham [Dirrell UD = 2pts + 0pts = 2pts]
    Kessler - Froch [Kessler KO = 3 pts + 2pts = 5pts]
    Taylor - Ward [Ward Decision 2pts + 0pts = 2pts]

    Stage 3

    Ward - Dirrell [Ward decision 2pts + 2pts + 0pts = 4pts]
    Froch - Abraham [Abraham KO 3pts + 0pts + 3pts = 6pts]
    Taylor - Kessler [Kessler KO 3pts + 3pts + 2pts = 8pts]

    Kessler = 8pts
    Abraham = 6pts
    Ward = 4pts
    Froch = 2pts (Froch thru on tie break win)
    Dirrell = 2pts
    Taylor = 0pts

    Kessler - Froch [Kessler TKO]
    Ward - Abraham [Ward UD]

    Kessler - Ward [???] By this point, Ward is a better fighter than the tourney start...

    Kessler knocking out Froch twice seems to be a very popular choice. :yep

    You're dumb.

    Dirrell - Fights two euros, one american
    Ward - Fights one euro, two americans
    Taylor - Fights two euros, one american

    Kessler - Fights one euro, two americans
    Froch - Fights two euros, one american
    Abraham - Fights one euro, two americans

    Froch is the only Euro fighter to face the other two Europeans. Ward is the only American fighter to also face the other two Americans. The Europeans collectively have more fights with the Americans than the Americans have with other Americans. If you truly consider all three Americans to be weaker than their European conterparts then the Euros as a group have the easier schedules.
