froch and pavlik are jermaines problem, tall guys with power. everyone, everyone jermaine has faced that was smaller than him, he looked good. abraham is slow, flatfooted and smaller. jermaine will surely win this if he wants to.
Abraham will knock the fraud out. If he lasts to the final bell, Taylor is likely to get another gift decision. :yep
I like the "if he wants to" part of your post. Taylor is extremely athletic but I doubt he loves boxing so much. I think it's a living for him. You can go like that for a while but one day, your desire to give it all is not there enough. I think the tournament may be exciting enough for him to give it all.
JT is done. He is a nice guy, a good father, but he can't fight inside, and that is his downfall. He can run in the mountains, train with PAv and Froch, eat the best food money can buy, and hire Shilstone, and he'd still get knocked out. He does not have the style or power to hurt AA. JT can hurt/stun easy to hit guys like Froch and Pav-no offense, but he can't hurt AA. AA ko in 8...
Anyone who has seen both Abraham and Taylor fight will pick AA to brutalize Taylor. It's going to happen. And I won't say it's because Taylor cannot defeat white boys (see Pavlik and Froch) because that would be crass, irreleant, and rascist. No, it's because Taylor has always looked like he would be a great fighter, but isn't, and Abraham doens't look like a great fighter, but is. Now that's logic for you.
HMMM I was definately going for a Taylor UD but if its in Germany i think he'll have to KO him - hell its worse than Texas for decisions over there. Ill go for an unlikely Taylor knock out then as i think he'll be too much for abraham
