    I think AA will be ready and will give Ward a really good test. I hate this block for 8 rounds and then start throwing bombs. I think he will come out strong from the get go and maybe KO Ward. But if hes gonna fight AA in close range and made it a dirty fight, AA will land some lethal shots forsure. Ward probally will win. Everybody wants the froch ward showdown, but dont be suprized if Ward hits the dirt.

    I heart says AA, but my brain says ward, eventhough I don't really like any of them.

    Abraham doesn't have a chance logically. but everyone has a punchers chance. even if bika and ward were fighting i'd give bika a punchers chance like 10%

    absolutely no upset. this is bang on Ward's hometown doorstep and Abraham wings his punches.

    Ward is going to jump in grapple rabbit punch jump out and repeat and everyone on ESB will proclaim him a top P4P talent.

    Abraham will get DQd late when well behind on the scorecards in a boring fight.

    Abraham has never shown an ounce of ability fighting on the inside, and that's against guys who really don't know what to do on the inside. Ward knows how to smoother people and by doing so he neutralizes their power.

    No way. AA doesn't have the mental focus, nevermind the skill set, to upset Ward.

    And I hate Ward.

    I always welcome an upset, But don't see it here.
    Ward will use his underestimated strength and bully Abraham thru 12 Rds.

    BUT if AA can pull the trigger I'd be just as happy.
    Fan of both.

    Son of Ottke wins via wide UD. The blueprint to beat Abraham is plain for everyone to see following Froch and Dirrell's performances.

    Nothing would give me greater pleasure that to see an Abraham hookercut shatter the goat's jaw though.

    AA has a puncher's chance and that's about it. He's really too one-dimensional to beat a complete fighter like Ward.

    :deal I think Ward has the ability to follow Froch's blueprint. If he decides to fight on the inside...it might get interesting....

    Beyer: Ring#4 when Kessler beat him
    Mundine: Ring #3 when Kessler beat him (#2 for about a year after Calzaghe moved up to LHW)

    Siaca was like top 5 as well when Kessler beat him, but he was grossly overrated, so I don't count him.

    Kessler is 3-2 against top tier opposition.

    Ont thing going for Abe is actually his peekaboo style - Ward doesn't have the power to penatrate it, and its har to grapple a guy who has his guard up like that. But I still have my doubts that a slow Guy like Abe has a chance.

    But to see Ward lying unconscious on the canvas ahhh... Sweet thought!

    I respect guys who stand behind their religious beliefs, but Ward is making a bad name for Christians with his hipocritical statements that "I'm not a dirty fighter", his dirty fighting inside the ring and his constant self-promoting outside IMO.
