Ward vs Green and Froch vs Abraham

Who do you think is gonna win these fights? I think Ward will beat Green. I haven't seen much of Green at all but he doesn't seem to have beaten anyone of note whereas Ward looked great beating up Kessler. I think Ward by decision in that one.

Froch on the other hand, will get brutally knocked out imo. He has a decent chin but he can be hurt as we saw against Taylor, Dirrell and Kessler. None of those guys have as much firepower as Abraham and I can't see Froch being able to get out of the way of the punches like Dirrell could. He'll have too much heart and too much faith in his chin for his own good imo.

I think Green loses to Ward and then loses to Kessler. AA vs Froch I really don't know, I can't wait for that one ! I lean towards Froch.

I think Green loses a competitive decision to Ward and then finishes the tournament in style by knocking out Kessler.

I lean towards Froch because of Abraham's slow starting pace, but I wouldn't be shocked if Abe stopped Carl.

i can give a few thoughts only on this since ive seen AA fight once fronch twice ward 2 times and green only on youtube..ward is stylish.excelent fluid fighter fantastic jab good hand speed and footwork that will be needed against a green.he puts punches together well and is seasoned far beyound his brief pro career..green on the other hand has excellent power handspeed and just maybe the best left hook in the business and is a no nonsence type of fighter.moves foward well.this is a upgrade in competion for him..a big one where wards been there before.i would not be suprized to see green out of nowhere land that great left hook and ko ward coming from behind in the middle rounds..thats a good possibilty.but will he..green has been koed once i saw that on a youtube thing and i suspect his chin may not be able to handle the elite of the division..i think ward will have his hands full but hit green often at angles while boxing and takes a comfortable UD or ko in the late rounds..one thing i feel for certain this is gonna be a hella of a fight.
the fronch AA fight both guys can hit..AA has perhaps both a balance and maybe some clink in the chin armour based on the ditrrell fight..both are strong guys and use there strenth..AA i hate his style but here its an advantage.froch is not ditrell.he moves foward and AA will come out of that shell and land some powerfull rights..he will stop fronch in the tenth again via constant damage coming out of that shell..he cannot afford to give away the first 5 or 6 rounds which is a habit of his cause fronch then could box reduce chances of getting wacked.AA has to be competitive the first half of the figfht..if he is the ko will come.

I think Ward just has too much movement for Green. But if Green can catch Ward with a big shot he could take Ward out of there. But I don't see Green landing that shot, so I take Ward by a decisive UD.

I don't think enough is made of the fact that Abraham is so much smaller than anyone else in this tournament. The Dirrell fight showed what a disadvantage he's at. But in this one, I think the combination of Froch keeping his hands low plays into Abraham's favor. I think Abraham will wear Froch down and win the last 3 or 4 rounds to get a decision.

But my record of picking fights sucks, so if you agree with theses picks, don't put any money down.

as soon as mark see's this he's gonna scream blasphemy

ward beats green in a competitive fight and AA KO's froch. the problem is that froch cant move and will get hit too easily.

Ward will defeat Green and Abraham will destroy Froch.

Green by KO in the 8th.
Rounds 1-3 Ward is moving not getting hit often and winning easy
Rounds 4-5 Ward is slowing just a bit and Green is landing a little
Rounds 6-7 Ward goes down once and has slowed a lot. Also he is getting hit by big right hands and Greens nasty left hook.
Round 8 Green lands a huge left hook and Ward is out on his feet when Green throws a combo and ends the fight with a big right.

Green quits in the tenth

BTW everyone here will grovel to me begging entrance into Allan Green Nation after he KO's Ward. I might forgive your blasphemy.

How dare you ever suggest the greatest would quit.

Ward beats Green. Not sure how, but I think he gets it done in an impressive way.

Froch will stop Abraham. I think Abraham will be clueless what to do with Froch and when he starts to open up late, Froch will unload on him.

AA has a great chin. i cannot at all see froch stopping him. if froch opens up, i think its worse for froch. the best way for froch to win is stay back and box which he wont do.
