    I give mad respect to abraham for taking the fight,and i hear all 3 judges are from detroit and to me that's bs.I was going for dirrell,but i think him fighting in detroit is a bad move,because he will try to impress the crowd and that will leave many openings for abraham to put him to sleep.

    My first prediction was dirrell by ud,but i believe this fight will be like julio caesar chavez vs medrick taylor 1,because i can see dirrell displaying lots of skills and speed,but i also see abraham landing hard shots as the fight goe's on. I got abraham by 9th round ko

    The only 2 guy's i see beating abraham in the tournament is kessler and ward.

    It's hard to call.

    Dirrell is gonna dance and win rounds all night, but if Abraham lands a bomb it could be over like that.

    That might turn out to be a bang-on comparison. I'm pulling for AA, who I think is getting shafted if it really is going to be all hometown judging. I think Ward went from a great noob to have in the tournament before it began, to being the man to beat in the whole tournament after the Kessler fight. I can very much see a possible AA/Ward finale and Ward being the winner.

    Only 1 of the judges is from Michigan. The other 2 are foreign


    Abraham is fighting in Detroit because all 5 other fighters are getting fights in their hometowns, why would Dirrell be any different. California is not Michigan.

    Abraham, by all accounts, is one bad mother****er.

    One judge and the ref are from Michigan.

    You are right though, it´s fair the fight is now in Detroit. AA had his fight against Taylor in his adopted hometown Berlin, so I have no complains about the fight being near Dirrell´s home. And I don´t have to stay up all night until 5 o´clock to watch the fight, that´s a plus for me:good

    Dirrell on paper should win this, and I dont think you should ever pick a fighter because he is one tough, bad mother****er. Take Margarito for example, and to an extent, even Froch.

    The only way that translates into the fight is if Dirrell thinks the same of AA, and gives him way to much respect like he did Froch.

    Having said all that, Abraham really is one bad motherfuker. Interesting fight.

    AA needs to knock out Dirrell to get a win. Ironically Dirrell needed to do the same thing against Froch:think. Too bad he didn't:-(

    I agree. He has the tools to beat everyone. I really think Dirrell knows in his heart of hearts that AA is going to win this fight.

    Bla bla europeans stay in their european comfort zone and americans in their american comfort zone. We know that already.

    Though AA will have his second fight in the US. And he would have fought Pavlik in the US too, but it never happend:?
