    That's right a punching bag you can hit all night, only Abraham bites back. Give all my love the son of god never pays me back... may as well go to my alcoholics anonymous class. We are all little sog's an it is a great time to be thankful that some of us don't attend AA. Can't wait for the fight.

    He didn't do much biting back against Froch though did he?

    I think it'll be relatively comfortable for Ward. He won't let Abraham get set to throw his big power punches and should be able to dominate with his speed and movement. With Abraham's power you can't count him out completely, but I was one of those that thought he'd beat Froch because of his power and he never really threw that many bombs. He was never set to throw them and couldn't deal with Froch's jab and movement. I can see something similar happening here

    I'd imagine it'll be like watching Ward working the heavy bag for 12 rounds, with Abraham mounting some occasional offense. I want Ward to win because there's just no point at all in seeing Froch-Abraham II in the final if Froch gets by Johnson. I'd much rather see Froch-Ward as I think the SuperSix has at least shown those 2 to be the best fighters in the competition so it's only natural that they should meet in the final. Really I don't see much point in the semi finals even taking place at all, it should have just been a Froch-Ward final to begin with.

    I agree Froch-Ward would be the natural or most logical ending to the SS- tourney, but it wouldn't break my heart to see the SOG lose to Abraham, and if it ended up being Froch-Abe in the final, that's just the way it goes.

    I just can't see a way Abraham competes here. Ward is just too sound.

    But I also can't see Ward really hurting King Arthur.

    Ward will hammer AA until the ref stops it in the later rounds or his corner throws the towel in because AA isn't fighting back. There is more than one way to stop somebody.

    True. I think Ward is pretty smart though and if he's comfortably up 8-1 or something, is he the kind of guy who takes the risk of letting it all hang out to convince the ref to stop it? I don't think so. I think he glides the rest of the way.

    We'll see.

    I can see the possibility of Ward dominating, but AA has a decent beard, and I doubt that his corner will stop it unless he's taking a beating or is out on his feet..

    Nobody seems to be giving AA any shot at winning, I think it would be funny as hell if Ward underestimates AA, and gets his ass handed to him. It probably won't happen just sayin' an upset would be sweet.

    I kinda expect the bold as well. Froch Ward would be a wonderful fight. More fun if it takes place in the UK with those looney fans!

    Course ward and froch can box. Arthur is more of a punisher. Go Abraham
