Picking a Super Six Favorite...why & why not?

[Wacko3205]

Continued from above :

Alrighty then...those are my picks for the last men standing...Abraham, Kessler, & Ward. Now...here's the rest of the bunch...& why I saved them for last...

ANDRE DIRRELL

Why not?
I hate to pick against Dirrell…but honestly I just don’t know if he’s strong enough to make it through this tourney. While he has youth on his side, speed, & abilities like his Olympic counterpart Andre Ward…he’s just not strong enough or dynamic enough to compete with some of the other top players in these matches. I did think that he beat Froch…but it wasn’t as dominate a performance as I was looking for nor was it really a truly convincing one. Yes Dirrell looked spectacular in dispatching Hanshaw, Paschall, & Oganvo by TKO…but those men are not nor ever will be on the same echelon as an Abraham, Kessler, or even a Taylor. I just don’t see him having the fortitude to make it to the end of this tournament as a victor. I wouldn’t mind being pleasantly surprised though.

JERMAIN TAYLOR

Why not? No matter what anyone says…a critic worth the salt of his own sweat will admit that Taylor is a fantastic boxer. Hands down Jermain Taylor is one of the better boxers in this tourney as far as skill levels & fundamental abilities go…but his flaws have been left uncorrected for so long that he’s to the point of no return. In Wacko’s Humble Opinion, there’s only one thing & one thing only out there that’s going to help Jermain Taylor & that is going back to Pat Burns & rebuilding…so let’s not dwell on brutal side notes…if Taylor procedes in the tournament & loses he needs to retire or completely go back to the drawing board…honestly though...I think that he ABSOLUTELY does not need to stay in this tournament. I hate it...but Taylor is spent.

CARL FROCH

This one…this “why not” is easy for me…I just don’t like Froch. I never have…& I never will. I don’t like his style, his mouth, or anything he does in the ring. Sorry Froch fans…I don’t. I thought he looked horrible against Dirrell & I honestly thought that Dirrell beat him. Froch just doesn’t do much for me. Sure he’s got a puncher’s chance…but what is that? I guess it’ll be the ole “seeing is believing” for me…but I’m just not a fan.


Moving on...

So far...I've been pleased with this thing from start to finish & can't wait for the outcomes. Little bummed that Dirrell lost...or didn't...or whatever but was happy as a pig in shit about Abraham blasting Taylor out. Can't wait for Kessler vs Ward...the rest is just icing on the cake![/font]
