I just realized today that the super six tournament begun, and i missed it. Aswell as pretty much all the boxing news for the last month or so, cause i've been busy so can anyone fill us in on whats been happening ? thanks.
By the way it was my birthday on September 30th, and im now 20 not that anyones. Interested anyway but just thought i'd share that, its weird no longer being a teenager.
Abraham dominated Taylor en route to a 12th round KO, it was a nasty stoppage, Taylor had a mild concussion and short term memory loss, they are considering putting in Allen Green to replace him.Quote:

Points standings are.
1. Abraham 3 points 1-0 (1 KO)
2. Carl Froch 2 points 1-0 (0 KOs)
3. Kessler - 0 points 0-0 (0 KOs)
4. Ward - 0 points 0-0 (0 KOs)
5. Taylor - 0 points 0-1 (0 KOs)
6. Dirrell - 0 points 0-1 (0 KOs)
Taylor was savagley KO'd in the 12th round but was behind this time. Froch and Dirrell was a snooze fest due to Dirrell being a little pussy and not wanting to engage in battle of any kind, then complained like fuck because he didn't get the decision.Quote:

How's it going Ice?
Haven't you got the internet anymore?
September 30th was about three weeks ago. To even mention it is nothing more than a shameless attempt at rep whoring of the highest order. Lets be honest
Like ICB I have been quite out of the boxing loop for a while, and unfortunately I also only managed to catch bits and pieces of this match yesterday (saw the 12th though:p). Cannot remember the last time - if ever - I have seen two non-heavyweight non-Danish boxers going at it in primetime on a main national channel though, so it really is kinda embarrassing.Quote:

He is in the minority?
Honestly, I think Taylor was behind on cards but maybe not by that much, at least, not by as much as what the german TV was saying. he was constantly popping up the jab up to Abraham's high guard and almost never firing the big hand or pressurizing the body. I don't know if it was part of the game plan but if so, he needs (if ever he comes back) to get rid of Ozzy Ozel Nelson A.S.A.P and get back with either Stewart or Pat Burns. Also, same stamine problem; decline toward the end though this time, it was a bit better.Quote:

in other news Evander Holyfield's preparations for his fight with Vitali are said to be coming on nicely. Should be good.Quote:
