Abraham to quit the supersix!!

[Patty Tanager]

not surprising tbh. he might be drawn against Froch again or against Ward. Either way he's not going to win. But it would pay good and he's always got a puncher's chance.

They should just have Glen Johnson vs. Carl Froch, and the winner fights Ward. Winner of that then fights Kessler. Winner of that fights Bute. Winner of that fights Sergio

No they should do it the other way around, Ward has fought nobody in this tournament, total joke.

A totally dejected AA just told the german interviewer that he would quit the tournament!

man, what a ****in quitter. get bute's punk ass in the tournament!!!!

Danish television had that score. Didn't Johnson get Kessler's rounds?

No, because you always start with the same amount of points as the lowest pointholder. So that's why he started with 0 points because Allan Green had zero points. I don't see why he would pick up Kessler's scorecard points, but not his standings points.

This is the scorecard points that Johnson earned for the Green fight...

Uhh, Ward fought and shutout Mikkel Kessler. The same Mikkel Kessler that beat Froch.

Try again limey.

AA put on a horrible performance, he looked like Joshua Clottey in there against Dirrell and Froch.

Naah he was worse at least clottey landed more than a few shots.
Arthur looked like a heavy bag.

Uhh, Ward fought and shutout Mikkel Kessler. The same Mikkel Kessler that beat Froch.

Try again limey.

The tournament is laughable biased in Fraud's favour.

They wheel in two bums as replacements for him to fight, disgraceful.

Try again limey.

Ward is the best in the division in my opinion though I find him boring to watch.

AA has been schooled twice now and Ward is up next......

Really? Ward next? I would quit too because AA style puts him at a disadvantage against boxers or slick stance.

Johnson takes Kessler's score but not the points. Here's Cliff Rold's outline:

SCENARIO #3: FROCH WINS IN A FIGHT THAT LASTS ELEVEN COMPLETED ROUNDS

Here’s where things get a bit messy, though not really.

A Froch decision win earns the Brit the #2 seed in the tournament and keeps Ward at the top, no matter how you slice it. He will have four tournament points with a decision, five with a knockout. Either will leave him just shy of Ward (#1), but ahead of Abraham and Johnson, who are left to battle it out on paper via tiebreaker procedures.

Abraham and Johnson will both have the same amount of points (three) and knockouts (one), which means it will come down to aggregate scorecard points total. That amount is comprised of the combined total of points a fighter earns on the scorecards in each bout, plus additional points rewarded for unscored rounds in fights that end prior to the distance.

That Johnson inherits Kessler’s aggregate scoring total (though not his actual tournament points) puts the pressure on Abraham to simply win his fight.

Kessler had 679 combined points prior to dropping out of the tournament. Johnson amassed 350 points in the fight with Green – 200 actual scorecard points, plus 150 extra points based on 10 points awarded to the winner per each unscored round on each scorecard (rounds eight through twelve).

That puts the veteran at 1,029 total points; Abraham is currently at 677 points, which leaves him 352 shy of Johnson’s tally (for those at home struggling with the math).

As you cannot score more than 360 points in a 12-round fight, Abraham would have to be pitching a shutout and avoid getting dropped or suffering point deductions before getting stopped or disqualified in the 12th round in order to mathematically surpass Johnson’s total.

Otherwise, he’s looking at a scenario where a loss drops him down to the #4 seed, where he would face #1 seed Ward, while #2 seed Froch would square off against #3 seed Johnson.

Such would be the ultimate fall from grace, as he was in the lead from the very first fight last October up until Ward’s second tournament win in late June.
