    Do you still have AA as the favorite in the super six?

    I never had him, Look at him last night, He's over rated. Great example on how a fighter can't win just on power. He got outworked....COMPLETELY. It's bad that the fight ended up falling a part by a DQ (It was clearly a DQ) but Andre and Arthur gave us one hell of a match. My question is.. Are you still on the Abrahammer train even after this loss?

    At the end of round 1 I had Ward as the favorite and still do. Frochs stock has gone up in my book and AA may be in some major trouble. He should still make the final 4 but it is going to be a tough go for him to win this thing.

      Abraham looked good aganist a guy who was coming of a KO loss. DIrrell'sspeed and movement confused abraham all fight. Now that arthur has lost, the other guys in the super 6 know how to beat him. Throw alot og pucnhes ealry rounds and move sideways, keeppressure on abraham and he will come out throwing wild shots, counter-punch him.

        yes. I still have Abraham, Ward and Dirrell as the favourites. Out of these 3 I would say Ward is the BEST.

          Hes one of the favs right now. I got Froch and Ward in the final.

          Froch vs Abraham will be a ****ing war IMO, especially if Froch loses to Kess, then both will be coming off losses and will go all out to win.

            I had Dirrel winning the tourney.

            On A Side Note: I have been seeing alot of folks calling AA overrated now...How exactly?

            I have not ever seen anyone say or act as if he was a "world beater" (I hate that term). He was one of the top two Middle weights (along with Kelly), the man does have power (that is not overrated), and he has a boxing style similar to two other fighters (Clottey and Winkey), he just counters with pure power most of the time.

            He got beat by a better style. Simple. I really don't think that makes him overrated.

            He could still win the tourney...And KO some cats in the process.

              I had Kessler as the favorite, but then Ward dominated him.

                  Yes. As I said, Dirrell is the only one in the tournament who can compete with Abraham, but he's going to be eliminated and Abraham will dismantle everyone else.

                    He landed some good shots on Dirrell but Dirrell wasnt affected really.Who knows he could give Froch all he got and Froch might not be affected.If that happens expect Froch to knock him out.He's a good fighter but thenknocking out Taylor doesnt prove much.

                    Good thing about this tournament is people get exposed
