          So far I am, I picked Ward to win the whole thing. I was surprised that people actually picked AA & I've come to admire Froch, coming in 2nd is nothing to be ashamed of.

            Ditto, and I've got very little right about this tournament.

            The good news is I think Ward will win (not by KO), so Froch might just do it!

              I've been right about Ward from the get, here's a cept from 3rd November 2009 (right before the Kessler fight) under my previous account Walterson.

              He's learnt a lot from the best.

              His footwork is very similar to that of Bernard Hopkins.

              His padwork is very similar to Mayweather.

              He's got brilliant accuracy and does not waste punches.

              He's got a very strong will. He's looked defeat (knocked down) in the face and come back from it.

              He prepares for every opponent by studying them, but also places a huge emphasis on adapting in the ring.

              He knows how Kessler lost to Calzaghe, the blueprint has been written.

              More than 80 amateur fights.

              He married the woman that gave birth to his children before he was 20. No need for a playboy lifestyle, he only has his career and family to think about.

              He's been trained to push, when you can no longer go on.

              Gold at the Olympics.

              Fighting at home.

              This guy does not know how to lose, and will win the Super Six.

                I remember saying ward had the potential to win it all we just didnt hadnt seen enough out of him.

                Froch has exceeded my expectations and direll i expected more.

                  I thought Abraham or Dirrel would win the tourny initially.

                  I didn't think Ward's chin could hold up because he's been hurt so many times before the tourny started.

                  I was made a believer though after Ward beat Kessler.

                    before the tournament i ranked them like this (in order of chance at winning this)

                    1. Kessler
                    2. Abraham
                    3. Ward
                    4. Taylor
                    5. Dirrell
                    6. Froch

                    So.. I don't think i could have been more wrong. Highly underestimated Froch, and grotesquely overestimated Abraham.
                    Kessler i feel still could have gone very far so i won't put too much blame on me about that pick just yet.
