    So Ali and Naz arent true Muslims?
     
  2. No, how they should be?? Martial Arts are Haram, same like eating pork or drinking alcohol. If they despite do it, they make Haram, sin, they are not qualified to be Muslims. They can actto believe in this Fairy Tail religion, but they will never be from what the Koran says, true Muslims. In fact, 98% aren't because most don't even pay Zakat.

    Boo and you told us he won't fight anybody and he moved up in weight to fight the best fighters of his new division. :lol::patsch

    I see your hate is still intact, son.

    Arthur just wasn't as good as advertised. People actually picked him to come in second to Kessler :lol: :rofl :patsch

    A little bit like when you picked Bute to beat Froch and Ward, isn't it ? :lol: :rofl :patsch

    He outperformed Froch vs. Taylor and Ward vs. Miranda at the time, so it wasn't unrealistic with the limited live fights the rest had.

    In the end, he was proven too small for the division and lost motivation after JT, in a fight he looked spectacular. Wegner threatened to leave camp several times after that, and Abra wasn't too keen to take chances once Crotch and Ward started to beat on his ass. Dirrell fight is a difference because the knockdown pissed him up and was actually looking to close the show when he went overexcited, after that there was really no sharpness in his game, I mean he went life and death with Stieglitz.

    No..picking the 4-1 favourite to beat Froch isn't as bad as so many people picking Abraham to KO everyone in the Super 6 :lol: :rofl

    The only KO he got was vs shot Taylor and the cheapshot against Dirrell. :-(

    His level of ability was expectedly exposed in the Super Six Classic....

    it was rather funny reading some ESB'rs who ranted and raved about him until he started to take losses, having to step up in being in the tournament

    Abraham was favorite when the tournament started. Your argument is invalid. :lol::patsch And what the **** have odds to do with anything anyway ? Abraham never lost like Bute lost. And you predicted Bute to clean the division. Let's see if he can clean his city first ...

    Abraham has been fighting the best opposition possible his entire career, he came up short against some of the top guys in the division north of his prime weight.
    Abraham has never ducked anyone or quit in a fight, yes he lost to the best boxers he has faced, but at least he took his shot at greatness (which can't rightfully be claimed by every fighter out there).
    He has won legit belts in two divisions while defeating fair opposition (with two good wins over Stieglitz and Miranda).
    Besides he is fighting a top 10 SMW next.

    Odds have to do with the fact that the overwhelming majority felt Bute was going to win :nut

    Picking one fight wrong isn't as bad as a guy being favoured and then losing basically every fight in the tourney.

    It doesn't change ****. You picked Bute to clean 168 then move up and clean 175. He crumbled at the very first stage of that enterprise ... I don't want to hate on Bute anymore but you sound like a phony mother****er. :hat
