Well the bookmakers here in the UK have Froch favorite but I see Kessler being head and shoulders above the rest!
In reality he lost. You need more than skill to be a success. What advantages he had in skill were wiped out by the heart, bottle, stamina, toughness, power etc of those two.
Skills look more impressive, and are probably the most important factor after bottle, but that's only one part of the package.
Just because a fighter is faster, has more variety of punches and a better defence doesn't necessarily mean he will ever beat the lesser skilled man.. as history shows![]()
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
I like Kessler to win it all.
My dark horse is Dirrell.
would be stunned if kessler doesnt win every fight he is in.
Froch-abraham to fight over 2nd...ward 4th, taylor 5th...dirrell will struggle to win a fight
one dangerous horrible bloke
I actually think that Froch may surprise a lot of people and win the entire thing! Kessler is being overrated here as he is everywhere the guy is not proven and lost his only fight at elite level; Froch has fought at elite level twice (Pascal and Taylor) and is 2 and 0 with 2 ko's.
I definately know who wins in this tourny.....boxing & the fans. That's all I really give a damn about.
I know, it's crazy. I'm still waiting for the curtain to fall somehow, but even though there are going to be injuries and other setbacks this is a tremendously good idea. This is a perfect type scenario imo for up and comers to get noticed and make a name.
I could even see EA Spots making video games off something like this. I'd buy it.
Taylor-Abraham: I think a lot of people are going to be surprised how close (and GOOD) this fight is actually going to be! Abraham like Bernard Hopkins, gives away early rounds, that's not good vs Taylor who can build up a solid lead, and sure Froch closed the show but who knows maybe Abraham gets a little tuckered out and Taylor hangs on to win...it could happen, I think JT has a lot riding on him winning at least this fight.
Ward-Kessler: Mikkel gets overrated and underrated at the same time, but vs Andre Ward he is just too experienced and too powerful. Ward recently got dropped by Edison Miranda, and I can't name a top level guy Andre has hurt.
Dirrell-Froch: I see Carl Froch as a limited fighter with good power, I think Dirrell will surprise a lot of folks and stop him late.
