    On the contrary he'd likley go bankrupt.

    I'd definitely take those 6/1 odds on Froch and 4/1 Abraham is pretty tasty.

    Making the rank outsiders Dirrell and Ward his 2/1 favourites is just stupid.

    Any sensible punter would back Ward and Dirrell at their 10/1 odds elsewhere than come to him and get some nice tasty rewards on Froch and Abraham.

    As long as Kessler or Taylor don't win the punters would have a field day.

    I think Taylor is the only one that CAN'T win it!!
    Well i'll be Froched! I reckon both Kessler and Abraham have the best chance of success here.

    Personally, I would favor Kessler and Abraham over all the others, Taylor always run out of gas in the late rounds, Froch has shots too telegraphic and Ward/Dirrell have tons of potential but are just not prepared enough for Abraham or the Danish Vicking.

    You think Abraham, who's never fought at the weight before has a better shot than Taylor?

    Yep. I think Kessler or Abraham will win - I haven't seen as much of Ward or Dirrell so they may be better than I am giving them credit for.

    Part of me is actually thinking he may prove to be the big disappointment of the whole tournament.

    We've yet to see him in with anybody really decent, even at middleweight let alone at super.

    It honestly wouldn't suprise me one bit if in his first fight with Jermain he got completely outboxed and dominated.

    I have agreed with literally almost nothing you said but I agree I don't think Abraham matches up well with any of these guys.

    I actually think it was a bad move for Abraham, siging up for this.

    Kessler will win it in style

    See, i'm a big Joe C fan...however Froch's continous insulting of him has taken away any incentive I had to root for him
