    Is JT going to lose every fight in the Tourney?

    Let's be real here. He just got KTFO by the smallest guy in this thing, who, BTW just moved up from Middleweight. He's already been stopped by that caveman Froch. Both Andre's are huge SMWs and I'm sure they pack enough pop to hurt JT. Kessler will do a number on Jermain. Was this a Bad move for 'Bad Intentions'?

    The tourney already started off poorly for America, one American gets KO'd and the other one gets robbed. If Kessler is winning on points against Ward in Oakland I can expect for him to get cheated to.

      I think the only fights he will possibly win are a rematch with Froch or against Ward (who IMO doesn't have enough pop to hurt him)

          Kesller will in all likelihood starch him. Ward I don't think has the power. Froch is too slow but I thought the same thing in their first fight and look what happened there, so I'm not saying one way or the other. I don't think Dirrel has the style to do it, but again, JT seems like seriously damaged goods at this point, so who knows, maybe even a light tap to the chin would shake him.

            I think he beats Dirrell, and has a chance in a rematch with Froch.

              He might

              I don't know what his issue is. I used to think it was conditioning. And it still might be, but it was hard for me to get over the fact that he has been fighting below his capabilities for some time now. Against AA he continued to throw a thousand jabs straight to AA's gloves, and even though he hooked around them every once in a while, it wasn't nearly enough. He tried to go to the body, which AA defended well, but never really used the hooks to the body as a distraction for meaningful combinations upstairs. Instead he continued to try to hurt AA to the body, even though that wasn't working. You are not going to beat somebody with a granite chin like AA with 1,000 blocked jabs and less than effective body punching.

              I feel like his corner does him a disservice. Maybe Emmanuel Steward wasn't working for him, but I think he would have told him that if you can't get through that guard, you have to give him a reason to open up, and for God's sake if you going to move back, move to the side and pot shot the hell out of him- it's not like AA was really going to catch him with too many sweeping hooks. JT has the physical talent to dominate anybody using boxing skill, but he needs to be willing to sprinkle in something new to his style. Sure his glass jaw is a liability, but he needs to learn new things that will help him adapt better to his opponents.

                    All I know is guys who suffer brutal, concussive KO losses (like the one against AA) don't usually recover very well, in terms of being able to take a hard shot. And he's already been stopped twice before last night. JT entered this Tourney on the wrong foot. It's gonna be a long couple years for him. He should pull out and the winner of the Bute vs Andrade fight should step in.
