    First time Ive seen Abraham tonight, he looks solid, great chin, extremely strong and very heavy handed.

    I had Kessler winning this tourney by a mile, and although I still think kessler will win it, the Kessler - Abraham fight should be a tough one for him

      Classic line, he's got a lot of charisma. I'm glad he's learning English.
      yeah, that's was pretty funny when he said that.

        AA just proved a lot to me. I think him and Kessler are going to be in the finals.

          After Kessler/Abraham/Ward there are only monkeys who will fight for the pieces left...I see anyone of them in the final..hard to tell which one isn't making it..

            only JT thought he was nothing special.

            Pavlik might might be able to keep up the pressure on AA and keep him in the turtle shell.

              its not much of a surprise to me. Taylor always has lapses and gets clocked, and Abraham has the power to win rounds just with a few punches.

              without his power, Abraham isnt that amazing. lets not forget that Raul Marquez broke two of his ribs and that he lost a fair share of rounds against guys like Elvin Ayala, Oral and LaJuan Simon.

              his turtle shell guard is ok, but for the most part, theres no variation to it. he just puts it up and hopes for the best. people that know how to work around a generic guard and go to the body(in other words, not Taylor) can capitalize on this. especially because of how Abraham doesnt do anything for half of the round.

              still, his power is massive, and he keeps it for pretty much the whole fight. that is the great equalizer, and he can even win rounds with it, because his few massive punches can do enough damage to win the round for him even when hes only fighting for a minute of it.

                I dont think that is special, but is a good fighter. I want to see fighting Andre Ward I think he is special

                    I agree 100%.

                    Pavlik is not difficult to hit, and Abraham has one-punch KO power.
