Wow this is actually happening. I cannot even pick a winner out of Abraham, Froch and Kessler as they are very evenly matched. Looks great and just what boxing needs.

Kesslers different class for me... should be good, amazing infact.

Cant wait,still cant believe its happening...

Even though this tournament has been discussed alot, I never really imagined it would go ahead ultimatley. Looks like I was wrong though, should be a great event. I'm not even gonna try and pick a winner, even the 'underdogs' have a good chance in this one.

knowing the cobra..he will KO one of them, which one i dont know.

its intressting to see froch is the biggest man of the 3

Great to see this may be going ahead. All three seem to be in good shape already.

i think dirrell will win the whole thing.

I read a beautiful quote from a yank:

'It isn't over until the Cobra says so'

Kessler's a level above Froch IMO.

Based on what? He hasn't beat that many great or even good fighters but he is good thats what makes it very intriguing.

I agree, I think all of these fighters are pretty much on the same level, some cracking matchups there.

Amazing to see them all there. Looks like this is happening!

Good to see Steve Bunce back in work

Think either Kessler or AA will win very good competition idea but feel AA and Kessler are difrent class to the rest of them imo

I'm a huge Froch fan, but Kessler is technically sounder, particularly his jab and laser-like straight right.
Can't make up my mind about Abraham at Super Middle - much like Pavlik I think part of his success at middle has been through being the naturally bigger, stronger man, and if that's taken away from him he'll lose his greatest asset.
Heart wants Froch to win it, head says Kessler.

Still cannot see this happening, sorry - but I think Kessler or maybe Dirrell will win it.

Tallest. Not necessarily the biggest. Abraham is very solid. I think Kessler probably weighs a couple of pounds more than Froch.

Conversely, you could say that Abraham has looked poor recently at middleweight because he was draining too much, and he'll be reinvigorated at super middle (much like he appeared in the Miranda rematch).

Thanks for the photos Gomez. It's great to see the 3 guys together. One of them will win it, imo. I can't wait!!!!! D

Ye probably Kessler is built he has very broud shoulders also I think AA should have a few fights at SMW before jumping into this tournemint as every 1 in it are talented boxers so maybe he should get used to going in with biggers guys before jumping in at the deep end

I think that's undoubtedly true, but him being reinvigorated through weight loss pressures being removed doesn't alter the fact he'll still be facing naturally bigger (and possibly stronger) opponents than in the past and thus one of his key assets is potentially neutered.

Couldnt resist
