      i think kessler more lily going to decision froch if he winds, but abrahams more likely going to kncok froch out...

      I hope froch wins both fights...
      i think all three are "hypejobs"....

      but i agree with your post.

      i'd personally root for kessler over froch, but i'd root for froch against AA....all those fights could go either way, IMO.

        I have them both beating froch, so lets put some points on froch vs kessler.
        btw froch got a 12 rd ko on taylor and he was losing on cards, and he got a gift decision against dirrell. i like froch but i really don't think he is very good.

          you would root for him or you genuinly think Froch would beat AA based on styles? If you think Froch has the style advantage i'd be interested in hearing why you favour him?

            I think both of those guys will beat Froch, but I think Carl has a better chance against AA.

              i'd root for froch, but as i stated, i don't think either guy is waaaayyy ahead of the other guy, talent-wise.


              i could see froch trying to overwhelm AA, and keeping him on the defensive, as dirrell did.


              but at the same time, i can see AA catching froch with a huge punch, and putting him down.

              i'm loving the S6 so far....

                AA will/can easily beat the Cobra and end his reign of venom.

                  If Dirrell can wobble Froch, Abraham can knock him out.

                  I think Froch does better against Kessler than he does against Abraham. Kessler is coming off a huge loss and Ward showed very precisely that he does not like rough fighters, which Froch is.

                    Kessler will most likely get KO'd by Froch. Why? Because he has no head movement, he doesn't slip punches, doesn't block too much, he is simply there to be hit. We saw Kessler take alot of punches from Calzaghe and from Ward, even that unkown guy Perdomo was able to get quite a few punches in. Although Froch is not as fast Ward I don't think he'll have any problems landing on Kessler. Added to that Froch is probably the hardest hitter next to Abraham in the tourney.

                    But the Froch vs Abraham fight is a toss-up in my eyes.

                      Abraham's power and Froch's leaky defense makes me believe that Abraham has a much better chance of beating Froch than Kessler.

                      Honestly, Ward is the only one with a chance to end up undefeated at the end of this, but... I could see someone like Abraham knocking him out. His punch output and reach (I think at least) are inferior to Dirrell's.
