Who would you bet on to win the super 6?

Fair enough.

He still has a bit to prove for me as Kessler was a good mathup stylistically for him.

I see JT giving him different puzzles to solve.

The only thing is if he bashes JT up it won't really prove much either as Taylor has looked shot.

Other than progressing him in the super six I don't really see this fight as high reward for Ward whereas there is a risk against someone with JT's ability.

Already looking forward to seeing how Dirrel vs Ward pans out.

 

Great obsevations you sound like a big froch fan,but I can't agree with you on the chin power opinions.Abraham got his jaw broken and fought the rest of the fight and won,only other guys I can think of that fought with a broken jaw is Ali and Liston even though they lost the showed the determination.Abraham always has the "One punch K.O." on his side as well,he also does well when he has a fighter hurt to.

Don't think for a moment I'm not repecting what AA did in the mirander fight because it was incredible. But I've scored that fight many times and for me Mirrander won!

I am a big Froch fan but I can see his limitations. But I always say with Froch.....

......Don't ever bet against someone that doesn't know how to lose!

He always finds a way to win. On the chins thing it's not really worth debating- they've both got cracking beards.

The other thing on this fight is the sheer size difference between Froch and AA. It is a big difference. Go back and look at the original press conference.

 

Once again very good points,but Abraham hasn't lost yet either.you do have a good point on the size thing(3 inches I believe) but size doesn't always matter,if Abraham can get in kind of close to froch he could throw some nice looping punches.

 

I think Abraham goes trough the tournament without a loss.

 

For me where AA is going to come unstuck is his workrate. He doesn't run away like Dirrel.

He goes through these long periods where he rests on the ropes and lets the opponent attack. Froch will stay on him for the whole twelve rounds at a pace that AA won't like.

 

Well good point there,but,if froch gets in punching range with AA and is punching on him frequently you never know when he could come out of that shell of a defense and throw a hard punch that could catch froch hard on the chin.

 

I don't doubt that could happen. But no-one has ever properly gone to work on AA when he does that resting on the ropes crap. And also like I said before he is going to have to fight at a pace that he ain't used to.

 

Well we won't really know until the fight happens all we can do right now is look at the facts we've got.

 

It'll be a good fight thats for sure.

Assuming Froch beats Kessler and still has his belt I think the fight will be in England as Froch's nest one is in Copenhagen (which I'm going to). Should mean I'm able to go to that one as well. Though If it was in germany I would probably go. Gonna try and go to evey Froch fight in the Super6.

 

Yeah,it will be a good fight,do you live in the U.S.???

 

Nope. Good old sunny England!

 

i'm going with ward and it's because i'm from oakland. he beat the man at 168. what's pathetic is when bute beat andrade he got a higher ranking than ward after that. bute is a titlist that beat a contender, whereas ward beat the what many considered the best at 168. it's pathetic.

 

lmao at people thinking Froch will win. I watched the Dirrell fight live and I thought it was close, then I watched a replay more carefully and there is no way in hell Dirrell lost that fight. I'd say Froch is the weakest and won't win another fight in the tournament, well he shouldn't have won the first one. Ward should win now, Dirrell and Abraham have a chance though.

 

I would agree on the whole.

Although Ward is not 'the man' because he beat 'the man'.

Stles make fights and he's gotta prove that he can deal with more than just a kessler type fighter. JT and Dirrel will give him the chance to do that so we will see how good he is after those two.

Glad to see you backing your homeboy. Obviously I do the same with Frochy!
