    MW rates AA so highly to make Dirrell look better, but by rating Froch so low he shoots himself in the foot.

    I had Dirrell winning their fight (Froch), but he lost some rounds and it was close at the end.

    1. Ward
    2. Bute

    3. Dirrell
    4. Froch
    5. AA

    6. Johnson

    Kessler isn't fighting so he's out, Johnson beat Green who is fairly shitty. AA/Froch are coming off losses but Ward and Bute are head and shoulders above Dirrell who is supremely talented but seems unable to commit.

    Dirrell beat one good name: Abraham, who has one single win at SMW. Both are still unproven and their resume at the weight is thin as hair.
    That's reality.

    As for your comment on the biased members, we are not alone. In every serious ranking, Bute is at worse number 2. Of course, you are more intelligent than all the experts.

    You can have your own opinion but please give the right to the other posters to do the same without calling them biased. If someone is biased, it's obviously you.

    I agree, Dirrell and Abraham are somewhat unproven at the weight, Froch, Kessler and Ward all deserves to be clear ahead of Bute.

    It was my analysis of why Dirrell would completely school Abraham. A gunshy Jermain Taylor won 4 rounds off of him. Its the truth and like every prediction I've made for this tournament has come true. I predicted Ward to school Kessler, predicted Dirrell to beat Froch and Abraham, predicted Froch to lose to Kessler. Again if I say it, its gospel.

    I **** on Jermain Taylors as a fighter. Good guy otherwise. He's just overrated, struggled against welterweights and only 2 quality wins were iffy decisions against a drained aging Hopkins.


    However I think AA is a decent fighter. He has power. He's not overrated powerwise like Kessler and Froch. I think he's the best Eurobum besides Bute. He would absolutely demolish Kessler and will demolish Froch when they fight. Even though he hurt my boy, he's a dangerous puncher and I like his demeanor. "You vant to partee?"

    Take it to the bank.

    Good post. You're Canadian im correct? Yeah Brits overrate their fighters because they dont have many good ones.

    Any unbiased fan can see that Dirrell beat Froch and you really cant score that fight for Froch unless you are British and just naturally drunk all of the time or brain dead.

    Sorry bro. Jermain Taylor is a good dude. Decent fighter. But he was lucky to beat B Hop twice and those are really his only good victories.

    He got lucky to get a draw against Winky Wright a super welterweight in his prime, and struggled against another welterweight in Cory Spinks. An AVERAGE welterweight in Cory Spinks. That says it all really.


    He got KO'd by 3 one dimensional fighters. There are many American fighters like Dirrell, Ward, Dawson and Hopkins who could navigate that average list of opponents without losing.


    JT was a quality human being, NOT a great boxer.

    Kessler and Froch ahead of Dirrell? For why? One getting a gift and the other beating up a bunch of Eurobums for 5 years and proclaiming himself champion without facing any young athletic American fighters with athleticism and skill?

    Who has Kessler beaten that is good as Arthur Abraham? And no, nicking 3 rounds off Joe Calzaghe is not a resume.

    Once again you fail lufcrazy, like your sports team and CArl Froch in the ring.

    Froch has a decent chin. Nothing special. Been hurt in his last 3 fights against relatively light punchers.

    those arent skills, those are attributes you can find in any bum on the streets for a sandwich or a dollar bill. Oh and his power is massively overrated.
    You support him cuz you're British.

    I thought you meant Ring Magazine scoring the fight limey.

    You're using the Ring ratings as justification? :rofl

    Kessler number 2? :lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Are you still under the delusion this guy was anything but a decent boxer who feasted off of scrub fighters his whole career?

    Kessler? :rofl Then Froch at number 3? Ahead of Bute and Dirrell? Fighters with actual talent? :rofl

    Kessler?, why cant you guys get over it, you bag and ridicule Froch, yet Kessler barely made it pass the caveman and for my money lost that fight. AA ****s him up, so does Dirrell and I wouldnt put it past Johnson to wear his ass out also....to be honest Greens and Kesslers styles are very compatible and Kessler is just the right style for Green to look good against.....I would have loved to have seen Green vs Kessler ....its no gimme for Kessler believe me.
