    I think Abraham is the dark horse of the whole comp ( just a gut feeling )

    We shall see. I'll be rooting for Jermain of course, but it is hard to have much confidence in him at this point.

    The assumption that AA will KO JT is a bit irritating. Shannon Taylor came off a TKO loss to Raymond Joval into a title fight with AA, and went the distance. LuJaun Simon was a philly club fighter living off Bronco McKart's left overs, and went the distance with AA.

    Taylor should win this one. However, he's coming off a KO loss in a fight he was ahead in, and he's fighting in another country for the 1st time as a pro. AA may look like he's there for the taking, but he will catch most of what JT throws, and pitch it back harder. This could be a style that suits JT, and will let him get in an unstoppable rythym, or he will blow his wad
    and AA will take him out. This fight is down to what happens to JT, and how fighting at 168 affects AA. AA looked stronger against miranda at 166 weigh-in, so he may be more dangerous at SMW. This fight truly is a pick'em.
    My pick is a JT UD

    Yes, it's taken him every fight since his first bout with Hopkins to realise he's a front runner. And ONLY NOW he's going to do something about it?

    To tell the truth I want Taylor to win because he represents the whole U.S.A in this fight but I feel that AA is just a better fighter that fights all 12 rounds and he's going to win this fight. AA is hungry for a big fight and he finally got one and I don't think he'll let himself fail now. It no shame if either fighter lose to each other because this tournament is full of great fighters and I have a feeling that these 2 fighters could end up being 2 of the 4 fighters in the semi-finals.

    No way :)

    I think JT will win against AA on Saturday, but if Pavlik would be AA's opponent I would predict Pavlik to get KTFO.

    Pasky -- I thought you knew! Abraham got his face mangled by Miranda, fought a damaged version of Miranda in a rematch, knocked him out, and then called out Oscar deLaHoya, therefore, AA KO's KP:patsch
