I'd take kelly in that fight not just cuz he'd outwork him that's not to difficult but Kelly would be able to control and pepper AA keeping him at the end of his punches @ see those sloppy wide shots he wings from left field and avoid any big power shots AA i'd throw yeah he'd eat some but AA just doesn't have the stamina or accuracy to land enough to KO or win a decisionComment

No.
Dirrell dominated the fight for the 3/4 of the fight, Froch really made a perfect fight, but against Ward Abraham had a lot of chances, but didn't use them. If Abraham is not letting his hands go, he can't win. Plain and simple. The Abraham I was a fan of, was a fighter who never gave up and who let his hands go in flurries - not frequently (he never was a volume puncher) but often enough. He never was very active, but the Abraham we saw in his last two fights was just sitting behind his turtle shell, almost doing nothing. He seemed to be competely lost. He was unable to time his punches, seemed to get tired very early in the fight. He's done, but he was much better, because he used to be a much tougher guy. Abraham should retire or find a new coach.
The Abraham I was a fan of was a force at MW and would've given Pavlik a run for his money.Comment

they both fight on a straight line ..AA and Pavlik both look for that one big shot ,i think pavlik doubles up on his jab and backs AA up sets him up for a few bombs while taking some himself.But palik wins at Mw ....SMW Kelly still wins.
kelly and arthur both have trouble with boxers like ward/martinez/dirrell
they are one dimensional fightersComment
