    I think Froch and Ward are gonna be in the finals.

    Dirrel is damaged goods after that shot he took and he'll get beat in his next fight against Ward. I also think Froch is gonna beat Abraham and Kessler. I'm not in awe of Carl Froch. But if he was total garbage then he wouldn't have beaten Pascal. And Abraham fought a version of Taylor that had no confidence at all and Froch beat him when he was coming off the win over Lacy. I know Lacy isn't great. But it's still the idea that Froch beat a less timid version of Jermaine Taylor.

      I don't know...I'm leaning more towards a Abraham-Ward finals. I honestly don't see how Froch could possibly beat Abraham style wise. Abraham punches harder than he does, and also has some boxing skills to go along with it. Froch also likes to keep his hands low and Abraham proved that he can land some good shots against even a quicker fighter like Dirrell (which Froch failed to do without illegal brawling), so I can only imagine what would happen if he landed some good shots on Froch. His guard will also frustrate Froch.

      As for Green-Ward, I think Ward will take that. Afterwards he's fighting Dirrell, and I can see him winning that fight because he has pressure like Froch and Abraham do (which is obviously Dirrell's weakness), but also has some great handspeed to go along with it. If Dirrell wasn't so vulnerable to pressure, Ward would be an easy fight for him.

      And for the record, both Froch and Abraham fought a shot Taylor. Lacy was shot himself, so Taylor's win over him wasn't that impressive. He even got knocked down in one round and they ruled it a slip.

          Froch is gonna get KOd against Kessler and Abraham.

          Froch's famed "granite chin" has not held up too much in his last two fights. He's easy to hit if you let your hands go, I don't see Kessler or Abraham having too much trouble with him.

            Abraham will put Froch in a deep sleep. The only way he beats Kessler is if the Ward beating took something out of him.

              AA is going to go to the final IMO. Ward stays in the pocket a little bit too much he can get caught by AA. And, Ward chin is not as good as Dirrell IMO. And, I think Ward has the style to beat Dirrell. I think if Dirrell is not ruined from the punch he could outbox AA again. It is all about style match ups for this tourney. AA would KO Froch.

                  Ward will be in the finals, but Froch will lose to Kessler and Abraham.

                  Dont count Abraham out, he is still a force and IMO he will be in the finals.
