    Green has as much talent physically and technically as Dirrell or Ward but he's inconsistent. He often seems to be in great form in one fight and out of form the next.

    If Bika wanted in all he had to do was sign the contract to fight Green, but he wanted none of that.

    People were overrating him when they put him in the tournament in the first place.

    Emmett Linton boxed his ears off, and got jobbed in Green's home town.

    Green? The guy that sat ringside to call out Bute? Only to decide he wanted Froch? And ended up fighting? I'm not a good enough analyst myself to know how to rate him against the top guys if he hasn't fought them. That's me though.

    I like Green he always seems like a nice guy in interviews... And didnt he have part of his intestines removed? but yeah i think he is a live underdog in the tourney.

    I've been underwhelmed more than once while watching Green. I don't expect him to give Ward any real problems to deal with.

    I've asked him that before. Even asked my girlfriend if Aniston ever showed her tits in public. I want a concrete answer. Never been big on Aniston, but that's a hell of a photo.

    MO Green is inconsitant. he can be explosive and impressive or he can out right look to be average. I hope Green turns this tourney upside down with a Ko of Ward. thing is Wad has had soem **** poor performances lets not forget. same with Dirrell. but I can't get the Mccarry fight out of my head LOL. I say Ward is the fave but im pulling and hoping For Green to Shake this up and make things tighter

    Green's big, quick, and powerful, so guys he fights better not get too careless early on. But overall, I don't think he's being underestimated. Most people are picking him to lose all of his fights, which seems pretty accurate taking everything into account.

    Emmett Linton beat him up and stole his shoes. Now he's always paranoid!
