I agree, Ward is going to box circles around Abraham. AA will not be able to get off punches, and will be covering up for most of the fight.
It's funny how a year changes things in regards to whom we ratee highly and such...and unless abraham improved threefold over his previous performance he's loosing big time.
I'm calling it right now, an old-looking Abraham quits on his stool before the 10th round.
He said after the Froch loss that he will finish out the tourney because he made an obligation but after his last S6 fight he will return to MWQuote:

he was beaten by dirrell but he was coming back into it at the end and a lot of people on here said if it had gone another round aa may well have knocked him out
before that fight he was the favourite in a lot of peoples eyes for the tournament
If AA can put the froch and dirrell fight behind him and get some form back he can make a fight of it, i think wards style is almost suited to AA at his best

i just dont see it happening mate, best chance of getting to ward is early on in the fight where he likes to feel his opponent out, sadly for AA that is also his exact same tactic
speed plays a massive part in this fight, even if AA can go against every point of his career to date and try and get a fight going he will soon realise that andres handspeed and footwork is just too much
I reckon ward has him out of there within 9/10
i aint saying AA will win, hes being written off a bit easy thoQuote:

and wards power isnt that amazing and AA can take some punishment
best bet is ward on points, and i reckon it will be closer than a lot of people are saying
but as we well know his forehead is. I suspect he went to the same US boxing school as evander holyfield and bernard hopkinsQuote:

Abraham has to land more and to land 1-2 good otherwise it's over. It should normally go with Ward via a prudent 12 rounds UD or if he's lucky, Abraham via a lucky brick on the chin in the late rounds (if he throws more) and I tend to privilege greatly the first ending.
did anyone actually see abrahams outing a week or so back
up until the injury forced the journeyman bits and bobs fighter to retire abraham was on the end of a barrage of clean hard punches that was reddening his face something rotten
Stjepan Bozic - Boxer
that being the very guy who did that to him, anyone that even entertains the idea of abraham standing a chance against ward needs to have a word with themselves

i dunno mate, beginging to think he never actually had it in the 1st place
his career highlight being a win over edison miranda, remembering the fact pantera got completely shafted in the 1st fight by a ridiculously biased ref
he looked very good against taylor although taylor well past his best at the timeQuote:

i hope he turns up against ward and gives him a good fight, if he doesnt then ward will have had a relatively easy path to the final
