Since the second round of the super 6 is already decided who do you got outta these three fights?
Kessler vs Froch---in the UK
Ward vs Taylor---in US
Abraham vs Dirrell-- in US
I got Kessler, Taylor and Dirrell. I'm not gonna lie, the Ward vs Taylor fight is a toss up and it will be a very good one.
Can't pick that far ahead yet. Not with these guys. Anything can happen still. I have to see how the four of them look on Saturday before I could ever start picking the next round.
It might be Denmark due to Froch fighting at home first and Kessler fighting away in the first round. I really think it is up in the air though because if it is in the UK at a big venue, then this could be the one of the biggest fights the have had in a long time. Money might talk and Kessler might give up the home court in favor of a bigger % of the gate.
A huge % of the gate on top of the 1.5 or so mill he is already getting might be enough to make kessler give up his homecourt advantegous (especially if the give him 2 back to back home fights in exchange for fighting his 1st two away).
It would still be a much bigger venue in Denmark. Hennessy told Danish media the same thing.
I woudn't be surpriced if it could pull some 30K+ @ parken copenhagen.
i thought it was in denmark too as Kessler is away in the first round and Froch is at home. But i havent heard about the venue i was just assuming.
I got those 3 winning too

Kessler beats Froch --- In parken stadium Denmark, isn't it??
Taylor beats Ward.
Abraham beats Dirrell.

I actually think Ward is Taylor made (no pun intended) for Jermaine. He doesn't have the work rate nor explosive power to give Jermaine any problems. Truth be told...I have never seen Jermaine out boxed, which is what Ward will have to do to beat Jermaine. If Winky and a Prime B-hop couldn't really do it, then I highly doubt Ward does.
I guess we're on the same page... :headbang:

To me it don't matter if Jermain wins or loses this weekend, he'll still present the hardest match up for Ward and therefore wins this fight...

I got Froch over Kessler......laugh now be shocked later!!!
I got JT over Ward......momentum, JT will be comin' off a win vs Abe while Ward will be comin' off a brutal stoppage lost to Kessler!!
I got Dirrell over Abe......Abe is being way overrated and AFTER this tourney that will have been evident....IMO the only dude I give Abe a good chance at beating is Ward!!!:boxing:
I think Kessler beats Froch pillar to post, but it will be exciting as hell to watch. Dirrell will learn everything one man can ever hope to learn about themselves in the first round against Froch, and should he get through that impessively and turn out to be the real deal, I got to go with Dirrell there. But if he isn't the goods, Abraham will destroy him and the rest of his confidence. Dirrell to me is the wildcard of the bunch. Come Saturday he won't be, we'll know everything we need to. Ward/Taylor is a tough one to judge and possibly could be a tough one to watch. But Kessler/Froch will make up for it. And Abraham/Dirrell is the one fight that could go either way.
BTW the second round IMO is gonna be alot better than the first round. Alot of good style matchups and Kessler vs Froch in England will be huge. I also think ward vs taylor will be huge in atlantic city if it is promoted right.
