As an Abraham fan, I'm worried about the Taylor fight....

Kind of funny....you are rooting for Abraham but think Taylor wil win. I am rooting for Taylor but think Abraham will win. So in reality, you are hoping I am right and I am hoping you are right.

 

Abraham moves forward. He's certainly not going to fight backing up against Taylor. It's not as if he has fancy footwork. He only hangs back until he feels his opponent is gassed. Then, walks them down. That's what I've noticed anyway. Abraham is not a backwards fighting fighter, he's an aggressive (controlled aggression) power puncher.

 

No need to worry to be honest mate. Taylor won't be able to last long against Abraham at this point. Or anyone who has the ability to knock him out for that matter. The Froch fight showed what we all need to know about what he can do and what he can not in the ring against a puncher. He can outbox people for a period of time, but his stamina is dreadfully suspect. And if he goes toe to toe against them, there is a big chance he will be the one gets punished because he has shown in the past that he has no killer instinct against legit oppositions. This tournament is his last chance for redemption, but frankly I don't see him surviving it.

 

Odo: put Hoohapless on ignore. That's the best thing for your health. You will hear nothing else than crap from him on Abraham, the bigger crap the better. Nothing is too shitty to not write it, if it somehow suits the Pavlik defense as to why he "really" didn't duck Abraham, and otherwise would "surely" have beaten him by KO in the first round, with a cigarette in his mouth and a beer in his left hand.

 

If Taylor beats AA, I'll never post here again lol. AA is going to win the super 6 tournament no doubt. AA is the toughest fighter, with the best chin and most skills in the tourney. If I had to pick a guy who would give AA trouble right now, it is Dirrell.

 

JT won't be able to even outbox AA. JT is almost washed up. If he pulls off this miracle, and yes, I'm calling it a miracle lol, this would be one of the biggest upsets that I ever saw in my life.

 

Everyone can find the way back to good shape. Question is, will Taylor, and could Abraham still find a way to bomb him out anyways. This definetly is a fight for Abraham to shine or disappoint.

 

agreed

 

You've turned me all the way around on this fight...

 

hey:deal

Oh, and since this is nallege related; lol.

 

Kessler is technically better than Arthur Abraham is, Abraham is not the most skilled boxer in the tournament, but he very well may be the hardest hitting and most powerful guy in the tournament.

I see him loosing to Kessler.

 

I don't think Abraham can beat the Kessler who reduced Markus Beyer to one punch in 3 rounds. But Abraham can now show what he is made of, technically, against top opposition.

 

This tourney is Sauerland's baby. He was the brains and driving force that put it together.

Abraham and Kessler are both Sauerland fighters.

The tournament is loaded up with fighters Sauerland thinks AA and Kessler can beat.

Dirrell; a mere prospect whose best win was one of Zuniga's former victims.

Ward; went 12 rounds with a guy who got ran over by Pavlik and lost to AA twice, and that's his best win.

Taylor; consensus opinion is that JT is shot.

Froch; a man who is so easy to hit Robert McKraken demands a written apology for every punch that misses.

Make no mistake; this is the Kessler/Abraham show. However, I fully expect Abraham to fail miserably.

 

Well, let's see - if Abraham wins every fight by KO1, they were all shot. If he doesn't win a fight by KO1, he is a bum. Terrific Pavlik spokesperson logic.

 

Wow K, you are finally understanding how Eastsideboxing works, it took me awhile! Good on you mate!:good
