Andre Ward will lose to Arthur Abraham.

[goblin213]

Ward will smother him on the inside and abuse Abe while leaning his head on Abe's shoulder.

BattlingNelson, if you are so confident..

400,000 on Ward.

I didn't say that Ward would lose. Only that this is the toughest fight remaining for Ward.

[puga]

abraham aint beating sht1 anymore after geting exposed for having ver limited skills...all you need is a jab, move around a bit, or punch a lot coz AA does'nt know how to counterpunch for ****....

[BattlingNelson]

I actually think Froch/G. Johnson will be sturdy tests. I wouldn't be surprised to see Abraham quit against Ward.

Quit?

I doubt that. But who knows. If Ward dominates like Dirrell and in particular Froch, AA's mind might snap. On the other hand he ****** it up against Miranda and that shows balls. Of course that was years and 2 defeats ago.

[bojangles1987]

But Ward has shown he can play keep away from an opponent in the past. So that's not a question to me. He'll easily beat Abraham.

[komodo]

Ward has much more to his game than Abe....he can fight well on the inside and the outside....SOG will make Abe look like an amateur

[Bring It On]

Ward Vs Abraham will probably be beyond boring.

[Sparked_1985]

Abraham is a good step below Ward.

But he can still KO him. It's just unlikely.

[dans]

Possible, but I just think Wards is way too good for Abe. The style may give him trouble, but I see him being able to adjust and rough him up.

...or not lose in the supersix at all.

Abraham is the only fighter representing a challenge to Ward's skills. Ward likes to go (head first) on the inside most often and doing damage at close range. That tactic bears the risk of an encounter with an abrahammer that will doom Ward's suspect chin.

So far Abraham's blueprint of defeat is to stay on the outside and work hard with the jab and hook to the body.

So far we haven't seen Ward being able to do that. Not even against Sakio Bika where Ward also went inside despite knowing that Bute and Calzaghe was more succesful from the outside.

you may be right , Ward should definitely have an outside gameplan and utilizing his speed for this one.
