    Arthur Abraham vs Andre ward who wins?

    I personally think Arthur is going to go to Oakland and ko Andre ward and everyone is going to be like " Oh my god i didnt see that coming " but i do think that whats going to happen.....

    Andre ward has no power to speak of ,he not going to discourage Arthur with power or strength. Arthur might lose a few rounds due to inactivity but he will keep coming and will eventually get to tag ward right on that chin and ko Ward late.

    Styles make fights and Wards hugging and mugging style just wont cut it against Arthur he wont be Bullied or afraid of Ward and will let his hands fly this time and will eventually connect.

    What do you think?

    I heard that a lot before the Froch fight.

    I honestly think Ward will have much less success against Abraham than Froch did.

    Having said that, I still expect Ward to box his way to a tidy decision.

    The blueprint to beat abraham has been laid out twice not box and dont get involved true Ward probably doesnt have amazing power but only needs enough to keep him honest and will most likely box circles around him

    No i picked Froch to win by UD against Abraham. But it was Frochs and Dirrels power that kept Abraham in his shell, Ward is lacking in that area.

    He wont win a round but that wont be the game plan. It will only be looking for the ko.

    You remember the punches Froch took off Abraham in the 12th when Abraham let his hands go? Ward wont take those punches imo.

    Dirrell's power? Dirrell isn't a huge puncher and wasn't sitting down on his shots at all.

    Dirrell is a level above Ward in terms of Handspeed and Power.

    It will be interesting when Ward tries to tie Abraham up because of the way Abraham keeps his arms tucked in. Ward can't punch for ****, most of the bruises and cuts he causes on opponents are through headbutts and elbows. Abrahm needs to take chances though, he might take a few but like someone else said on here if he catches Ward with the punches he caught Froch with in the 12th, he could knock him out.

    Abraham can be outboxed. His footwork, balance, punching technique simply isn't that good. However he is strong, powerful, tenacious and dangerous for every second.

    Ward has become confident in his ability to have a fight, this could be his undoing. Expect Ward to outbox him but Abraham might pour it on late or Ward might get too confident in himself and think Abraham is now easily beatable.

    Will Ward want to go one better than Froch ? Does he need to make a statement against Abraham. Does Abraham want this fight , is his heart in it ? Froch hurt Abraham , thats why he did not want to let his hands go. He took some nasty body punches and hard shots to the head. I expect Ward to win, but would not be surprised to see him get hurt after dominating and trying to stop Abraham.

    Abraham is an overrated one dimensional fighter who has no business fighting at super middleweight. Ward will outbox him easily.
