    You must have better eyes than me! I see two tired fighters, but not hurt.

    But hey, its just my opinion. Having seen most of Mikkel's career, I think all the quicker more athletic Americans in the tournament are the potential problems.

    What's the very best you can see Ward doing against Kessler? Realistically.

    I can see him having his moments and being very competitive in the rounds. Lose on points, but enough to make me think if Kessler has a poor night, which is perfectly conceivable considering where he's been at the last few years, he's in trouble.

    I'm not willing to write these guys off, Dirrell and Ward, just because they are unproven. They don't look like clowns so I won't treat them as such. Everybody has to have their graduation night, there is always a point where you go from a 'nobody' to a 'somebody'. Who the **** knew about Carl Froch til he beat Pascal?

    I think Abraham is going to KO Taylor. Taylor will get knocked out in the Super 6 tournament and Arthur has what it takes to get him out of there in their match.

    Jermain is on the verge of being done imo. Just watch and see.

    I am sorry I have to DISAGREE with you on your statement. All of a sudden "hugging" and "holding" and "grabbing" after a boxer lands a punch is NOT RING GENERALSHIP! It makes a fight ugly, boring and if the "hugger" fights someone with decent infighting skills with power, it WILL BE A LOOOONG NIGHT
    Hopefully we get to see andre trying to hug Arthur:good

    I'm not to impressed with AA, my money will be on Taylor, maybe an early ko win as AA is a slow starter and Taylor is the opposite. Look at AA against Oral who hit him a lot in the first 4 rounds, what could a fighter with power have done ?

    A fighter with power insitinctively is going to try and get arthur in a brawl or go toe to toe, BAD MISTAKE! Obviously Arthur is not invincible, nor is any boxer, but that idea against arthur would be not be in the best interest.

    Taylor's only way to beat Abraham is to land a nice counter right and maybe stop him.
     
  10. I think you'll find that the normal, irrational, nonsensical ramblings of the general forum will ensue.
