      i think dirrell has a real shot at winning.when the super six started,i thought the 3 european fighters would dominate,and look what has happened so far!with their RECENT performances,i think ward and dirrell have the biggest shot.i think ward takes dirrell though.he looks like the most complete fighter so far.when will ward meet dirrell anyway?

        He definitely is a talented boxer and has a good chance. The only thing I worry about is his defense. There are too many moments when he gravitates to the ropes and bounces away with his chin up in the air.

          It's scheduled in the third round.My guess is the fight will be fourth quarter this year.

            Still anyone's game. I think Green looks dangerous for Ward...certainly looked to have the size advantage but I dont have the stats.

              i think Ward and Dirrell are the two favorites to win. Sucks they have to fight next round. I'd like to see them in the finals. But ya gotta think if Ward beats him That he has a good chance of not advancing to the semi finals.

                dirrell definitely has the skills and talent to do it, but does he have the heart? the heart of a champion to dig waayyyy down deep in them last few rounds... i personally think if that fight went the distance last night, he would have gotten caught... he was visibly tiring and was wobbled a few times bye abe... good thing for dirrell that fight ended imo.

                  don't be too enthralled by direll's win. I believed he would win yesterday just bc abraham was going to start slow and direll would get enough of an advantage to coast at the end. Abraham may have been a better fighter, but his style just doesn't match up well with direll. Ward is better than direll bc of his inside game and his toughness along with his power. Ward is the favorite to me, dont cont abraham out he may still ko green if they fight bc green will stay in front of him and has questionable heart. I think the european traditional styles will hurt them against ward and dirrell throughout.

                    He has to fight Ward but if he manages to win a UD or a D(1 point) who knows?

                    Froch will be fighting Abraham after the Kessler fight. Abraham should knock him out, if Kessler beats him, Froch will be out. If Froch beats Kessler, Kess will be out..

                    There are a lot of scenarios but I don't see Dirrell winning the tournament. I still go with Abraham.

Whether you think he faked being knocked out cold or not, you gotta admit, if the fight went to the decision he would of won a lopsided decision. Personally, I think he gets eliminated after Group Stage 3. If he beats Ward though, I think he'll have a decent shot. Do you guys think he has a shot at winning the tournament?
                      dirrell falls down too much. dirrell doesn't have the mental fortitude.
