A lot of people are picking Abraham and rightlyy so IMO.That is not dissing.

Maybe JT will prove us all wrong but IMO he is on a slide.

He has by far the most impressive resume of anybody in the tournament. I think he's going to upset a lot of people.

I think his stamina is the huge ? mark nowadays. Getting laid out twice didn't do him any favors.

But I've grown to appreciate his willingness to fight tough guys after a little string while he was champ that was a little dull.

I think a lot of people think he's past it at this point.

I love JT but this is a hard hard fight. Hoping he does it though.

Nobody's really bashing him. Just stating the obvious. His stamina sucks, and ultimately gets him knocked out. I'm a big fan of his, and hope the best for him. But I believe he's going to need a KO to win, and I don't think that's going to happen. No way he's given a decision. Even if he earns it.

I don't think peeps are ****ting on him. They're just honestly predicting what they think what will happen.

It's hard to pick him to win when recent results don't look good.

Might be hard for some to pick him but I think people are too quick to count him out. He has some heavy hands and a great jab. He has virtually every weapon in the book and can be hard to deal with in the ring. I think he's much more skilled as a boxer than some people tend to think.

If the fight was 6 rounds I might pick him to win but it is 12 sadly.

I haven't seen too many that doubt his skills, but his stamina kills him and peeps can't and won't pick him because of it.

Nobody talks **** about him, they just pick him to lose.
