Who Do You Think Will Win The Super 6 Tournament ?

The Super 6 Tournament starts October 17th with Jermain Taylor vs Arthur Abraham and Carl Froch vs Andre Dirrell kicking things off , Then later on November 21st Andre Ward vs Mikkel Kessler finishes the first round.

In the first three group stages, each fighter will face three opponents over the next 12 months in a point based system. 2 points are awarded for a win with an extra point added if the win is by KO/TKO. A draw will be worth 1 point, and a loss will give a fighter 0 points.

After the first three group stages, the fighters with the top four scores will advance into the tournament's semi-final round eliminating the two fighters with the lowest scores, and a tie-breaker rule will be in place. The seeding will then be the highest scoring fighter against the 4th scorer, and the 2nd high scorer vs. the 3rd.

The finals will see the winners of those two bouts collide for the first inaugural Super Six World Boxing Classic Trophy, as well as what should be the WBA and WBC super middleweight championships. The bout would be expected to take place in early 2011.

Who do you think will win it ?

I like Kessler with Ward as a dark horse.

True, but the man is skilled. I think he takes a rematch with Froch.

Kessler with Dirrell as the darkhorse. I like him to stick Froch on that opening night. Undecided on JT/Abraham

AA

I will go with Andre Ward! I want to say JT but dont know where his mind is right now.

froch. Just a feeling

I don't think he's skilled at all, but he's the heaviest puncher in this group with the best resume'. His take one to give one strategy isn't working anymore.

I'm pulling for JT or Dirrell; Dirrell is my dark horse, but I would bet on Kessler, Froch or maybe Abraham.

JT has plenty of skill. He also has a genetic deficiency which causes him to fade exponentially starting in the 8th-9th round of every right resulting in him holding on for dear life down the stretch to avoid being stopped. If he had any stamina at all he would've taken Froch's ass to school like he did in the first portion of that fight, but he just doesn't. Those two aren't even close to the same level skill-wise, unfortunately JT just has one massive weakness that he really can't do anything about

Jermain seems to have been training hard he's already at fighting weight for Saturdays fight. 169lb

I don't doubt that he has trained hard, I just don't see it making much of a difference. He comes out so super tense at the beginning of fights where it looks like every move he makes uses every muscle in his body and that has to just zap your energy after awhile. I don't think that's a habit he's going to be able to rid himself of. I am certainly rooting for him to beat AA and take this whole damn thing down though. His loss to Froch crushed me. I couldn't think of anything else for the rest of that weekend

JT's chin is what will keep him from winning....

King's got this.

My original pick was kessler but abraham looked really good!.i still think kessler will win a decision over abe bcuz he starts off way to slow unless he finds a way to get him out late in the fight.
