I will be going for Taylor but King Arthur is the real deal and I can't see Taylor changing into a pure boxer by this fight.
    Don't see it...

    I'm lookin forward to this fight. The way I see this is that is that Abraham fights in spurts. If Abraham really was an impressive pressure fighter not giving his opponent time to breath I would say that Taylor would get stopped inside 9 rounds maybe less. AA's tendency to fight in spurts really gives Taylor a chance to school Abraham in my opinion.

    I say Taylor really is too fast, too slick and as we saw against Froch's granite chin, he punches hard, so this being said, if Taylor can have better footwork than against Froch, I think that unless Abraham ups his workrate to somethin I haven't seen from him before, wearing Taylor out and stopping him, I see this as a wide UD for Taylor, which in Germany, well, we all know what that can mean in Germany.

    I'm really not sold on Abraham just yet. If someone can tell me who he has fought or show me a really impressive win, aside from a Miranda who was completely schooled by Andre Ward maybe i'll rethink things. Hell, if Lajuan Simon can take Abraham the distance and, although he got beat, land some good shots of his own then he's in for a long night against Taylor .
