And let's say that another fighter wins all three fights on points, he as well will have 3 points. So Abraham gives himself a little breathing room.
And as well, it still gives Taylor a shot at getting back in the game as well, if he finds some way to knock out his opponents. It won't happen, but it still gives him that chance.
The 4 with the most points, goes on to the semi-finals. So yeah, maximizing the points, is the best shot for them.
First off, its 2 for a win and 3 for a ko, so if he won his third he would have 5 points not 3.
My point is there are only six fighters and therefore 5 possible opponents.
Ok lets look at this. If two fighters lost all three then KO's wouldnt matter because the top 4 qualify so 1 win would qualify whether you won by ko or not.
I'm not sure if its possible mathematically though for 1 person to lose all three and two people to only win one. It probably depends on the fight draw but if Abraham loses his next two, then Im not sure if they could mathematicall somehow avoid fighting either each other or Taylor in any of the other two rounds, so one of them would have to win.
Remember there are three rounds and only six fighters, so certain results cannot happen. For example its mathematically impossible for more than two fighters to get a 100 percent record after three fights, its also mathematically impossible for three fighters to have all losses because two of them will have to fight each other.
Im not sure if its mathematically possible for either three boxers to finish on 1-2 or have one boxer on 0-3 and two on 1-2.
Alright, I had my points mixed up, I thought it was 0-1-2. :-\

lol, as if these guys give a fuck about scoring points.
Any of them would bite your hand off for a SD win at the moment.

As always Abraham entrance was awesome, I like Scorpions as well but the anthem interpretation wasn’t exactly on my taste.

True, man
this has Taylor win all over it. Fact./

Re: Official Super Six Follow Live Thread
i have it 3-0 Taylor, Abraham has his moments but Taylor's controlling the pace with his jab, even if it's mainly landing on the gloves, his jab is doing it's job it's keep Abraham from throwing his punches, round 4 just finished and i give it to Taylor as well, going by this pace Taylor shouldn't gas out, key term is SHOULDN'T

Whoa :-X.Ten foot poll around here somewhere ;D.Seriously though,Nearly every fight over there leads with some crappy Wal mart compilation cd out of the 80's 2 for 1 'sales' bin.
HUUUUGE difference watching this on big screen vs stream.I dont feel like I'm suffering from glaucoma now.

Same for when Kessler and Ward fight.
I don't think KOs are that important; remember only two fighters are going out in the first round and I doubt Taylor can recover from this.
I think the extra point for a ko is just a gimmick. I doubt it's mathematically possible to even make a difference to who the bottom to are, whether an extra point is awarded via ko or not.
Can somebody with a brain work that out for me?
Obviously mathematically if you win two fights you have to be in the top 4 it would be impossible not to be. If you lose two fights I guess it would be mathematically impossible to qualify whether you won that other fight by ko or not.
Maybe if there is draw it will make a difference but its highly unlikely.
Maybe it affects seeding the semi finals or something?
Still its clearly a pointless gimmick.
Assuming no draws
Fighter A. 3-0
Fighter B. 2-1
Fighter C. 2-1
Fighter D. 1-2
Fighter E. 1-2
Fighter F. 0-3
Again it ain't that complicated man.

Re: Official Super Six Follow Live Thread
If I was Abraham, I would get someone else to make his trunks. I had seen when I watched the fight live earlier that the elastic band failed, but I didn't notice on the tiny stream screen that the seam on his trunks is wide open on the crotch. :o

Re: Official Super Six Follow Live Thread
Both of these guys act like they are up 14 rounds in a 12 round fight, WTF !!!!

Damn, being able to see that knock out on a 65" TV versus that $hitty little stream I watched earlier, is so much more brutal.

Nope, fuck TVU that fucking piece of fucking shit. Fuck it. I found it elsewhere (thank God).
What a right hand though, that was great. I want to see Froch - Abraham.

Re: Official Super Six Follow Live Thread
Michael Buffer was determined to get props for fallen Taylor...he knows.That was just brutal ko.

Re: Official Super Six Follow Live Thread
Buffer adds insult to injury there...

Re: Official Super Six Follow Live Thread
Taylor is so frustrating. His confidence must be hit for six after that. His stamina continues to plague him and now getting sparked Hatton style.
I'm not sure if he can even get through this tournament now. :-\
I feel bad for the guy because like always he started quite brightly. He had better output than usual and really seemed determined to hang in there. I think he was unlucky to get the point taken away because a lot of those blows were glancing and not hard. Abraham has his shorts up way high.
But Abraham was coming on, and that final round. Ouch.
