Arthur Abraham

[JohnCIV6]

Will Abraham be considered an ATG if he wins the super six undefeated?

I believe so.. That would mean he beats 3 champions, a very impressive up and comer, and a former stud by ko. Just the level of toughness of the fights would be enough to say he is top 50..

Who think's he will win this tournament?

The only guy I think could beat him is Froch.. I say Froch, not because he is that good. I don't think he is that great at all, but you know Froch would get in there and rumble with him. If Froch could withstand fom being Ko'd, which I doubt, then he could very possibly out point him. Most people I'm assuming will say Kessler could beat him, but I just don't see it. I think that's a great matchup in favor of Abraham.

By now I'm hoping most people are getting over the fact that a fast guy isn't going to outpoint him. It has ben said that he would get outpointed many times, yet he never has, and has rarely been down even when he has a late rd KO.

"Will Abraham be considered an ATG if he wins the super six undefeated?"

Of course,Abraham defended his IBF 60 title 10 times.
At 168,he knocked out miranda and Taylor(former 160 lineal CHAMP)cold.
Now,if he wins the tournament,it means he beats also Direll(olympian),Kessler,Ward or Froch and win a great tournament.
So he would be an ATG top 100(not top 50) statement,takin in count the guy is scoring scary knoxk outs...

Then,if he beats Bute for the IBF belt,and some guys like Green and Pavlik,it would be such a great legacy close to the top 50.

Then if he move up to 175 and wins a title,he would be definitely top 50 and even better.

So the road is long for king Arthur.

NO..his only defining wins are Miranda..who is not even a top 5 super middle weight..and taylor..a fighter who lost 3 of his last 4...even by winning this tournament would not put him at an ATG status, sorry

I don't think Froch give troubles to Arthur,I disagree bro.
Froch and his one dimensional style isn't able to land clean punches trough Arthur's great defense.
Froch is really hittable,and if Taylor can drop Froch,Arthur can ko him cold.

Dirrell is the hardest fight for arthur,Arthur will have so much troubles to land on Dirrell.Dirrell is so taller and faster,and unlike JT,Dirrell doesn't gas out and moves a lot.

Dirrell will be better in his next fight.

No he wouldn't be considered an ATG. He would need to do a lot more.

[MELLY-MEL...]

no............

[Dorian]

If he wins, then beats another 2-3 elites, ATG for sure.

[-EX-]

No.........

[Johnny Rebel]

If the Super 6 winner goes on to beat Calzaghe that would put them into great territory. JC will be tempted (and favored) to face whoever prevails the SS.

[JohnCIV6]

No.........
