Hey if the fanatic golfmob(Ryder Cup) can do it, so can we:good If the Euro Vs Us thing is helping creating interest then fine by me...It is not important to me and i could easily be cheering for a member of the US team.
It could have something to do with where the guys are standing next to the camera! if Froch is just a little bit closer from certain angle to the camera than Kessler is, he looks bigger, seen it so many times on boxing pics! but it looks like Froch really have giant head.. that could make him look bigger too! Tyson would also look much smaller if he had normal sized head
I can't beleive how much bigger Froch and particarly Kessler stand over Abraham!... I mean Kessler looks like the same size of Adamek! I don't see Abraham doing well in this.... I reckon he could beat the less experienced fighters in Dirrel and Ward though.... but Kessler will wipe the floor with him!
Everyone here knows I've been hard on Kessler but he has redeemed himself with me by getting into this tournament.
So I assume that means, Pavlik NEVER came close to beating anyone good, since we now know that Taylor isn't elite, and when he got one in Hopkins he LOST, wide, without anything remotely looking from the far distance like something that resembles a chance on some planets. Thanks for pointing that out, now the "Pavlik > god while Abraham is complete ****" threads can be put to rest.
Just to remember, Abraham just kicked a couple of 6'2" asses consecutive at MW and had another 6'2" MW champ running scared of him. I don't think he will have a problem with the height disavantage and, IMO, he is one of the favorites to win his tournament.
Well, I hold Abraham in high regards, but still think it will show only by how he deals with Taylor if he has a chance in the tournament or not. At the moment, I cannot imagine him beating a Kessler in his best shape, but I am entirely open for him to prove me wrong.
At last boxing gets its **** together!! I'm really excited about this, finally a way of getting past all the alphabet **** and having a real champ amongst a crop of talented and equal boxers. Kessler has to be favourite followed by Froch but they're a close bunch. Can't wait!
Both Froch and Kessler are BIG 168ers. Arthur looks small in comparison. Note how bottle job Bute has been frozen out of this tournament!! :hey
