I picked froch, but am worried of his limitations, he just seems to be a brawler really & has the harest line up what with
dirrell (undefeated and little unknown may of added to his strenghs)
then kessler (had a war with calzaghe & looks strong)
then abrahams (looks strong stepping up in weight)
anyone changed there minds on the overall winner?
Nope.com
Kess all the way. 8)
if kess wins then i am sure many people are gonna have to re evaluate there opinion on calzaghe
I'm still sticking with Kessler as well no doubt in my mind. No need for me to change my opinion of Calzaghe he earned my respect in the Kessler fight.Quote:

The fact that he's already afraid to fight outside of Nottingham should raise some doubts.Quote:

The only reason to not travel to fight is because you are afraid it will go to the scorecards, which means he's not thinking he can KO everyone anymore.Quote:

That's my main point here, he thinks Kessler will stand and trade with him, but what if he doesn't? Kessler could easily choose to be the boxer and while he won't be dancing like Dirrell was he could still make a nightmare for Froch's slow hands. What's the gameplan then? Froch has one mode it may be an exciting one, but this is BOXING not fighting, one must be aware of different styles.Quote:

I said Kessler but now i'm saying Abraham. If it's a Abraham - Kess final , i just see a Abraham ko coming. Even Calzaghe hurt Kessler and he's not a huge puncher. Abraham catches Kessler and ko's him
Kess is a big boy too and he can box pretty well, I see a chess match with him and Abraham. Kessler may be strong enough and skilled enough to keep AA off of him and maybe hurt him
I didn't pick anyone to win the super 6. I was and still am rooting for Dirrel. At the same time this Arthur Abraham is stuck in my head. He just look so strong against Taylor.
When are the next fights scheduled?
I don't know why but AA's fight with Taylor keeps making me think about Rock IV.
just checking the odds now
Arthur Abraham 7/4 Mikkel Kessler 15/8 Carl Froch 10/3 Andre Ward 5/1 Andre Dirrell 25/1 Jermain Taylor 25/1
for our american friends
Arthur Abraham +175 Mikkel Kessler +188 Carl Froch +333 Andre Ward +500 Andre Dirrell +2500 Jermain Taylor +2500
dont know what the odds were for abrahams before he fought taylor but his odds must of dropped massively
jsut found these odds b4 the contest begun
- Mikkel Kessler +200
- Arthur Abraham +250
- Carl Froch +325
- Jermain Taylor +700
- Andre Ward +500
- Andre Dirrell +1000
