Jermain Taylor vs. Arthur Abraham

[The Hammer]

Imo Taylor i think will win here, i saw AA fight recently vs a bum well not really but a c class fighter and he put this guy down about 5 times, but was outboxed for large periods.

Mahir Oral is not a bum, he's actually a very good, skillful boxer.

not sure why, but i think Jermaine is gonna win this and shock the **** out of many people. he is a class act, and his losses to pavlick, and froch actually made me more of a fan of him. i am pulling for him over the far, and unjustly overrated abraham. big punch, and very tough, but nothing else in the way of skill, stamina, or boxing ability in general imo.

he's ok, but far from a very good boxer. lets be real. taylor is a very good boxer so he will be a good test for abraham. finally

Taylor will definitely be a good test for Abraham, and I'm hoping Americans will finally give Abraham the respect he deserves if he KOs Jermain.

Another factor is Taylor's already had a couple of fights at 168, while Abraham is moving up in weight. But I think Abraham will be even stronger at 168.

i agree..................

I'm a big Taylor fan, but I'm not getting my hopes up here, and going to be realistic based upon recent results.

Abraham by stoppage in or around the championship rounds. I hope I'm wrong though.



Either way, I still see Abraham going deep into the tournament.

Dont mean to Alarm but One of my trainers made it on the sparring squad. They were supposed to spare yesterday But they didnt because Jermain hurt his hand. Im thinking it probably something minor since they havent really announced anything.

At the start of this thread I said I would pick Arthur because I didn't want to be let down by Jermain again. But dammit I'm gonna go with Jermain again.

Jermain to win!

This guy aint in Taylors league skill wise yet he can out box AA? if Taylor can work on his stamina he can do it, i don't think his chin is bad Froch hit him with a MONSTER shot!

when jermain goes down it always looks like hes just tired and hurt not really buzzed.

Hope its nothing serious to delay the fight. Then again, Jermain needs to be 100% for this...
