few factors

 

1. the fight is in abrahams backyard, the atmosphere is going to be electric for abraham .

2. abraham is undefeated with 30 fights , 24 by ko , confidence is going to be sky high

3. taylor has a tendancy to struggle with his fitness the more the fight goes on

4. taylor has lost 3 of his last 4 fights, although against quality opposition , may affect his confidence

5. experience lies with taylor he been in with the likes of froch, lacy, pavlik, and hes beaten hopkins twice

6. slight height and reach to taylor

7. one of the key factors i think is taylor has never though outside of usa, and how will he cope with everything (time deference,atmosphere,pressure etc.)

 

for me abraham wins late on by tko/ko

Good points absolutely but I feel Jermain is a much better boxer so as long as he does not cave in to the pressure from Abraham he can pull it of. But as you say he is undefeated and a pressure fighter so will be very interesting to watch.

If Jermain loses its absolutely time to retire !!!!

I can see this happening. Abraham is too lackadaisical. Abraham reacts to a genuine threat but Jermain will just box and if he does those rounds will go in the bag as Abraham is behind that high guard.

 

I'll go for Abraham in the PL as its the safe bet but I can see Jermain stealing this and I'm pretty sure they will be neutral judges.

k guys...im going to the o2 world arena tomorrow to watch this fight live...sure,taylor has fought the better opposition and he truely is the better skilled boxer but the power,heart and will of abraham are a big factor...these are abrahams strenghts..he is used to be behind on points early because he uses the first 2-3 rounds to study the gameplan of his opponent..ive discussed that fight over the last weeks with my friends over and over again..this will be abrahams toughest fight so far,no doubt..i have abraham slightly ahead...i think it will be similar to the 2nd miranda bout...taylor will come out jabbing,moving,trying to set up combinations...but when arthur catches him with some power shots, the fight will be over pretty quick..abraham by ko middle/late rounds!!!!

Ha Ha doubt it I watched the fight live :-) If I dont get to watch big fights on tv I always have the results seconds after the fight. Love boxing too much Im afraid and espesially the results :-)

Stayed awake through both fights yesterday and loved them both. Just what I thought too about Abraham!! He was there to be beat but Taylor just could not get of his damn right hand. Abraham only fought for 30 seconds each round. And Tyalor kept pitty patting those jabs all night.

Just like Kessler said he should have tried something else :-(
