Ward-Abraham may happen in Cali, and despite the outrage, it will likely favor A.A.

    No way abraham can outpoint ward no matter where the fight is but its always nice to have a cali ref and officials just in case something doesnt go right, slim chance but you never know in this game. At least ward will get away with leading with the head if wants to go that route, abraham isnt known for his short crisp shots so being on the inside flayling away and with his head rammed into abrahams face mightnt be a bad place now and then :hey

    AA looked slow against Dirrell & looked awful, just totally uninterested against Froch. I just hope he puts in a decent effort this time & I think if Ward doesnt just stay outside for the distance & tries to trade with him then there may be a few moments of excitement in what will otherwise be a routine & uneventful win for Ward.

    I dont think there's much chance of the proverbial leopard changing its spots but AA needs to change just to be competitive, as shown up by his last 2 fights. I'd also like 2c Ward get beat but I'm not expecting an exciting fight, a lot depends on the kind of gameplan Ward will bring & how disciplined he will be.
    AA has been a but naughty at times & Ward often leads with his head so I wonder what the odds on a DQ are?

    Well lets hope SHO uses its power to get the fight at a place that makes sense, If Sauderland had it his way this would be in the ******* of nowhere.

    From what I read, there are 64,000 Armenians in L.A. alone (Glendale is over 25% Armenian). New York, a city that I'd say is about 3 times as large as L.A., has 30,000, to put it in perspective.

    Incidentally, I found that Armenians do damn well in school here.

    Hey David i used to live in Glendale and it was about 25% LIKE 25 yrs ago.... Glendale is more like 60 to 70% Armenian now. Id say about 115 to 125,000 in Glendale alone... All together id say LA county has around 250,000 armenians.

    Wow. That's nuts.

    So do you think the Armenians would be out in full force if the fight were held down there?
