    Yes, I believe so.

    Even if he inherrits 0 points there is still a chance as 3 points should be enough for the semifinal. But he would need a KO.

    Kessler is a very strong fighter, good skils, but I think he is being set up to get cheated by the judges, that's appears to be the plan. Fighting in America is not a wise decision. I have seen way too many bad decisions.

    I didnt say anything about it. Just that that's where the idea that he has an attitude or is arrogant comes from.

    I don't see a problem with Taylor fighting in Germany. He will get fair decision. Showtime wants American to win this tournament, that's why they are having it in the first place. Will pressure be put on judges?

    You´re really funny. It´s more likely to get a fair decision in USA than in Germany, that´s for sure. And that is being said by a German.

    Very daring pick!
    Most people would probably say that Dirrel is the least likely one to win that tournament due to his inexperience and the high quality of his opponents.

    Well,all in all it is a fantastic tournament.Each participant has the tools and potential to win the entire tournament.I am looking forward to all fights of this tournament!:good

    Kind of a bold statement considering he hasn't proven himself among world class competition yet.... but either way this tournament is going to answer a lot of question about both Dirrell and Ward so I'm looking forward to it.

    Technically Dirrell seems excellent but I'm far from convinced about his power, heart and savvy. If he manages to beat Froch in Nottingham, I'll believe he definitely has the potential to win the entire tournament but that is one massive if. I see the more experienced, powerful and relentless Froch taking him out before the Championship rounds.
