    That's a point, if Dirrel fights in Germany he'll drop a decision. Anywhere else I can see him pulling an upset and beating Abraham on points. Dirrell really impressed me on Saturday; I really like the guy and hope he does well.

    I think the Dirrel that fights Abraham will be better himself (more experience and confidence) and will have an easier time against Abraham, who has a much lower work-rate than Froch.

    Don't get me wrong, AA will probably beat him, but I think he's a very live opponent.

      More specifically, where is the Dirrell/Abraham fight? Because I don't see a KO happening and if it's in Germany I wouldn't be surprised if Dirrell gets screwed again.
      Dirrell-Abraham is supposed to be in the United States, though I can't imagine where they'd stage it and expect to make money.

      Kessler-Froch is in Denmark, which will mark Kessler's only home fight.

      Ward-Taylor or Green will obviously be in the states. If I had to guess on Ward-Taylor, knowing DiBella, it winds up in a casino (Beau Rivage or Foxwoods). Taylor's regional fan base was already dwindling while he was still undefeated; can't imagine how many fans in Little Rock would be willing to pay top dollar for a fight of his at this point.

        Are you sure?

        My guess is that nothing when it comes to venue has been decided yet. Hennesey said that he wants Froch-Kessler in Nottingham while Sauerland has said that they'll make the fight where the money is.

          Abraham over Dirrell, Points or KO
          Dirrell will give AA more problems than Taylor, but he will catch him with something big eventually...

          Kessler over Froch, Stoppage

          Ward over Taylor, Points
