The difference with Taylor is that it appears he can't hang with the best at super-middleweight. So for me, he either drops back down to middleweight, which would be a struggle, or he retires.

was impressed with abraham .. still think kessler is the man to beat though

The thing is though with Kessler his best performance was against Calzaghe almost 3 years ago, and he's been pretty inactive since. I'm waiting until after the Ward fight before passing judgement on him. I hope he beats Ward though.

Like someone said a few posts back, the Abraham - Froch fight will be war and definitely a fight I'll be watching.

always prefered to watch Froch than Calzaghe Froch is always going to entrertain you wereas Calzhage was to just do enough i think Froch might take Kessler apart tbh by being in he's face constantly as Kessler didnt hold up too well later on against Calzaghe and with the extre work Froch will make him do i can see Froch with a KO. The fight i cant wait for is Froch-Abraham what a bloody war that will be

Abraham is a better boxer than Froch. I agree with The Nihilist, I thinkAbraham will win the tournament.

Just out of interest, who are Froch's 2 remaining opponents in the 'group' stage???

Kessler and Abraham. Probably in Denmark and Germany.

So a knockout should just about be enough to scrape him a draw in those fights then?

Sorry mate but I just can't see Froch winning that fight, unless he catches Kessler with a couple of thos huge right hands, Kesslers speed and workrate will at least outpoint Froch if not secure a late stoppage.
