Andre Ward is Winning the Super Six

[Easy-E]

There is really no argument against that statement right now.

He displayed he is the significantly superior fighter to anyone in the tournament right now.

Early prediction is Ward UD over Abraham.

how did he display that he is superior to Dirrell, who shut out a vastly superior fighter in abraham?

Dirrell could beat him by decision and Abraham could beat him by a KO where Ward was ahead on points, but I see him beating everyone else too.

Well obviously if he gets by Dirrell there is nobody left to challenge him.

Dirrell would be eliminated and the toughest opponent remaining, Kessler, is one he has already easily beaten.

The tourney really needs Dirrell to pull the upset otherwise there is no drama in the remaining fights.

If Andre loses and is out of the Super 6 he can go to HBO and fight Lucian Bute in a fight that would generate a lot more interest than any of the remaining Super 6 fights involving Ward.

Face it, If Ward beats Dirrell the rest of the fights are mere formalities.

If he cant get to the inside against Dirrel he is dead Meat.

also abe will give him lots of trouble!


Dirrell>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Ward.

I dont think he displayed any obvious superiority but I think Ward is simply a much more well rounded and diversified fighter. He has a unique ability to adapt and force his style onto his opponent.

Dirrell, on the other hand, needed an opponent like Abraham who really sits back and does nothing for long stretches, to show off his skills. Against anyone who stays on top on Andre and keeps coming forward he is going to have trouble.

I did like the interview with Dirrell that Jim Grey did where Dirrell said the key to beating Ward was making sure to be first. At least he has the right idea even before going into training camp.

Dirrell's back is against the wall, he needs the win to advance whereas Ward is already guaranteed to move on.... does that leave a possibility for a letdown? I would normally say yes but Ward seems like a guy with an unbreakable focus.
