Taylor got in with an audio message, saying to dominate Abraham with his jab from the very first round and that he loves to travel to his opponents backyard to fight him.
Abraham's coach said that its of big importance to start with a win to get the momentum going and when his protege does so, he can win it all - else it's gonna be very hard to accomplish it. Abraham is all about competitiveness - that's why he's in this tourney with him the first to agree to fight in it.
Btw, I got info that Abraham has all his eyes on Kessler - it's like a psycho fight already. In the last weeks, Abraham dictated the time of Kessler's training in the gym. It's said that Abraham trained in the early afternoon so Kessler had to train there in the evening b/c both don't want to see each other in the gym. In addition, the whole story with Kessler joining SE motivates Abraham to do bigger and better things, training harder.
When you remember the short video docu on SE's homepage where Kessler wanted to joke with AA, AA wouldn't want to get into it but steering at Kessler - You see, he wants to **** him up badly.
Abraham finally got the motivation within his camp he every wanted - it's very likely, we'll see the best of Abraham in this tourney...
I can confirm that Kessler had to train in the evening because AA worked out during the day. The reports I've read on the issue doesn't say who ordered it to be like that. With that being said it's likely that AA has the higher priority than Kessler since AA is the bigger star in Germany and he's preparing for the tournament. Kessler prepares for a pretty useless mandatory.

For those curious about how Abraham will be @ 168 just watch his 4th Round KO over Miranda in their 168lb rematch.
Styles make fights, i think Taylor wins this one but it's hard to beat a German fighter...IN Germany.

AA picks his spots and JT might not get winded out cause AA doesn't pressure enough. But AA has looked stronger at 168 and is a very accurate puncher. This dude has real punching power. This is an excellent tournament and should be a lot a fun to watch, I give the edge to Kessler

I got Dirrell or Ward winning it all.
