Being short actually helps Abraham

[sylvestersweet]

Because he's able to cover his whole torso with his arms when he goes into the turtle defense. If he was taller he wouldn't be able to get away with that kind of covering up unless he had freakishly long and thick arms.

Clottey style.

Abraham is a good fighter. He'll do damage in this tournament, I have no doubt of that.

Yep. Taylor will come on strong in the first 8 rounds, then he will gradually slow down and Abraham will stop him in the 11th maybe. I don't think Taylor has enough power to put Abraham away. Maybe if he starts breaking him down early, really going at him. Nothing is impossible. He really needs to win. That will make a difference.

i don't think taylor can keep up a high workrate to keep abraham off of him. he'll tire out then abe will finish it i think.

The ideal sparring partner for Taylor to prepare for Abraham would be Clottey... or Winky, but we know he's not getting anywhere near Taylor again.
