Ward's going to knock him out. Dirrell might be ahead on the scorecards though.

this fight is between most skilled boxers in the super 6

This'll be the most interesting fight of the tournament to me. Dirrell has the physical advantages to take this, but I think Ward's edge in ring smarts and doggedness may be the deciding factor. I see him quickly getting inside Dirrell's reach and working and probably winning a close decision in the end based on aggression and making Dirrell look and feel uncomfortable in there.

AA-Froch will be a war.

AA-Froch will be a war.

Yeah that's second on my list. And to be fair, that match-up got a lot more interesting to me after witnessing Froch's performance against Kessler - he's not the no-hoper I had him pegged as. I do think that Arthur will get the KO though, the man's just a human wrecking ball.

'Impressed' is a strong word lol.....I did see things which can work to his favour against Abraham though, such as his ranginess (Kessler couldn't get his right hand off all night), him being able to punch right through his opponents' guards (a very big plus against Abraham), his chin being a little better than I thought it was, and him being pretty good at finding a home for his jab. I don't think it'll be an easy night for Abraham.

Ward will beat Dirrell but this will be his biggest test. Ward winning the entire tournament.

While on the subject of early predictions- Ward wins the tournament and goes to fight Lucian Bute.

ah I see your point.

Yeah i've been thinking about this fight in my head and how it will play out. It's interesting because we've never seen froch fight a guy like abraham, with the whole winky shell defense and great countering abilities. I reckon froch will have no choice but to go forward to abraham and throw those awkward "jabs" at abe's guard. I think froch is way too easy to be countered, I don't know why Kessler didn't do a better job at it. I think froch is getting hurt in this one.
