Ward will hammer AA until the ref stops it in the later rounds or his corner throws the towel in because AA isn't fighting back. There is more than one way to stop somebody.Quote:

I can see the possibility of Ward dominating, but AA has a decent beard, and I doubt that his corner will stop it unless he's taking a beating or is out on his feet..Quote:

AA will find ward easier to hit than dirrell!!
Abe must throw no punches to wards head!
He must only target the body with every punch he has got!!
Ward will cry by the 8th round!!
Abe is so good to the body.
This could b a repeat of jermain vs Arthur here!
upset written all over it

Are you one of those British boxing fans that loves Abraham because of your dislike for his rival, Pavlik, which stems from Loew's comments made a few years ago that Pavlik could beat Calzaghe? Cause, no offense, but Abraham is about to be squashed. And I don't like Ward's smothering style, but I don't see a way that AA can with this.Quote:

AA - KO 10. Fact.

Ill be at the fight tomorrow. I think it will be a typical Ward boring and ugly lopsoded UD victory. If Kessler couldnt do anything with Ward, what makes anyone think Abe can do anything with his straight up style and wide punches? Especially after the way Abe has looked in his last two fights.
Outside the ol' "punchers chance" I see little hope for Abe. You have to throw punches if you want to land a hail mary

if you wanna know why i think will be an upset then styles makes fights and I think wards suits AAs
i would also really like to see it happen :)
Ward looks like my cumshot
Hey, people can be wrong, and at that point in time, after Pavlik beat Jermain Taylor, the first time, after seeing Jermain fight tooth and nail against Bernard Hopkins, it wasn't super far-fetched.Quote:

I'm rooting for AA too although I'd probably rather see a Froch-Ward finale - I just find it hard to see how AA wins.
