    What's with all the Abraham hype?

    (Sorry Taylor i'm a huge huge fan of yours but i need to call you names at least once in my life since i have defended you for so long)

    Ever since Abraham TKO'ed Jermain "Sad Intentions/Bad Stamina" Taylor in the 12th round, I've been reading comments like this.


    "Abraham would KTFO out of Kessler"

    "Paul Williams wouldn't last one round with Abraham"

    "Abraham will be the winner of the Super 6"

    "Who could beat Abraham?"

    Now i'm waiting for some one to post something like "Is Abraham the G.O.A.T?" and polls likes "Abraham vs Sugar Ray Robinson"

    I'm a fan of The King but come on guys Abraham was favored to win and those who were rooting for Taylor was out of sympathy or because they were long time fans like me. Hence not that many posters betting on Taylor, including me and a lot of other Taylor fans.

    With that said, props to Arthur Abraham for his very very impressive defense. I was shocked at all the punches that Abraham blocked from Taylor. Abraham is going to be a tough opponent for anyone in the Super 6.

    Agree, I don't see an improved AA. All I saw was a one-handed Jermain Taylor get beaten.

      I have been saying Abraham would win this tournament since it was first announced, and I stick by it. If anyone is being overrated I seriously think it is Kessler, he is the favorite and I agree, but his best accomplishment was losing a wide UD to Calzaghe.

        2 rounds is a wide UD?

          AA's is getting overrated for KOing a guy that has already been KOed 2x before.
