Good points, but there have always been a few Green supporters around who claimed he would have beaten Miranda and Linton if not for health issues. I think Green will prove them wrong.
So many people have such low expectations of Green that he could lose both of his fights and still come out the same. I guess the same could be said about Froch as well, but I expect AA to put him to sleep and froch will fade to obscurity.
Just thought I'd bump this thread! Almost half of us expected Froch to come out of the Super6 with a battered repuation. Now look! WAR FROCH!!!!!!!!!!!
At this point it's obviously Dirrell. It'll take a while to gain any credibility in the publics eyes.
I think abraham came out the worst, people were high on him at 160 because of his punching power he is now viewed as a limited weakling that has no business at 168, I agree though he should move back to 160. Direll was the most talented in my opinion but he doesnt have the mental aspect that ward has. kessler is still in the mixoutside the s6 but I expected more from him.. Ward did very well but all the fights at home hurt him, he could win outside as well because he is very talented. Froch came out the best from limited caveman that would lose vs the any of the guys he did pretty well, close fights with direll and kessler, dominating abraham and beating johnson proving heart and an iron chin. Carl froch beating ward isnt the most likely scenario but it would be the best one for boxing.
AA has been the biggest loser in the tournament. Losses to Dirrell, Froch and Ward has taken its toll in SMW. Nobody believes that he has anything to do in this division. Props to AA for taking the fights though and not giving up like some.
