    Good evening sir.
    Prediction?
    I'll have a very controversial stoppage near the death,with Steig surprising a few people before we find out Arthur is more popular with the fuhr..I mean Germans.

    Abraham gets out boxed for 9 rounds, then gets awarded a stoppage victory while Sti is still on his feet, somewhere around the 11th.

    Only safe V-cash bet for this one was on the over.

    Dirrell, Froch and Ward schooled Abraham..
    But Stieglitz doesn't have the physical intangibles that Froch and Dirrell has, and no where near the skill and craft Ward posses..
    Stieglitz should be able to outbox Abraham, but it isn't going to cut it for Stieg who is both smaller and less skilled than those who beat Abraham. Stieglitz will be finished if Abraham can connect and i don't think that Stieglitz can keep Abraham away for 12 rounds, Abraham is eventually going to get his hands on him and when that happens Stieglitz is toast..
    If Abraham fights like he did in Miranda II, like in the first 3 rounds against Ward or like he did in the final 2 against Dirrell, then he will stop Glitz..

    Stieglitz wide UD or AA Brutal KO are the only two outcomes. I got Stieglitz. Nice fight Sauerland,

    I have no problem with Arthur,but outwith a battle worn Taylor,has Arthur KO'd a B-Level fighter at 168 yet?
    Just asking in case you think it's a loaded question.I just have a feeling Steig will surprise a few people tonight,but whether it's by Arthur,the judges or the ref I think he won't be allowed to win.The Bundesmasses want Arthur with a belt again.

    Shame Zaveck is off card, like to see him in action. One of my favorite prospects, Jack Culcay is though.

    I think Stieglitz out works him to a competitive decision in good fight, though of the top guys at 168 this is Abe's best chance at a win
