OK, meybe you were the first guy on this thread to say it, but others have said it before. I agree though, Taylor will outbox him to win a close decicion (providing they don't use bribed judges/refs like Robin Reid-Ottke)
Ottke has 1 (one) !!! KO win in his ENTIRE pro career. You can therefore argue if he needed bribed judges or not :roll: But Abraham surely doesn't depend on judges to win :thumbsup As soon as Taylor makes close friendship with the Abrahammer, the bout is over. Taylor won't see the last round, mark my words :tong
Before a Taylor fight, people say he will win, pointing to his talent and that he won't repeat past mistakes. After a Taylor fight, people say he could have won, if only...
Bold prediction. Don't you think that Abraham is a little tougher than Ouma or Spinks? Or a better fighter than Lacy? Or do you believe that Taylor suddenly has finishing skills?
I'm a fan of both, so I'll be hppy/sad whoever wins. Jermain is clearly the better boxer, but Abraham has the better chin and better power. Could go either way, but I think AA will score a KO while behind on the cards.
Would you dare to bet 100 $ on this? Or 1000 $ if you prefer? Taylor NEVER knocked out ANYONE in his ENTIRE pro career (look at BoxRec) and the LAST one Taylor TKO'd was one Daniel Edouard (anybody heard of this guy?) in February 2005... :nut After decisions against an over-the-7-hils-shot Lacy and also Kassim Ouma, and merely squeezing out a SD over Cory Spinks, who if I dare to remeber got TKO'd by Zab Judah (!), NOW Taylor is going to KNOCK OUT Abraham? ABRAHAM ??? :rofl The grass you're smoking must be 1A quality stuff :smoke
Very true. On the other hand. Who the hell has Abraham beaten? The best name on his record is Edison freaking Miranda. :huh That fight is a big ???? to me. I think Taylor will probably win because he has fought by far the better opposition. But I wouldn't bet my house on it.
It is true that Abraham is unproven at the elite level. However he has looked comfortable in the ring in a way that I have rarely seen. His chin is obviously granite and he seems unimpressen with the punches thrown at him, calmly waiting for his opportunity. Besiden, Taylor would have a hard time with Miranda who might be on a similar level as Froch ( abit of a wild guess I admit).
