    Abraham's handlers made some fundamental mistakes bringing him along. They discovered early on that he would have trouble with guys who had heavy hands, so post Miranda they kept heavy handed guys away from him.

    They discovered early on he would have trouble with long-tall guys, so they matched him almost exclusively with short guys.

    Now he's in a division loaded with long-tall heavy handed guys, and can't cope.

    He is 31 so he probably won't be changing too much. I don't expect him to have a more dynamic defense with head movement as long as he is with Uli Wegner. The guys I have seen Wegner train are usually very robotic and basic.

    About his stamina--you won't convince me that this guy is training like an elite world class contender. He brings the fight to Ward for 3 rounds and gasses out. It isn't like he has a lot of movement that would be tiring him. Just not good enough.

    Btw I was watching a media vid and it seems Abraham wanted to stay at 168. I don't think he can make 160 anymore. That is a big problem.

    The entire strategy of Sauerland to bring him to SMW and take on the world has backfired badly. They thought Abraham was invincible. Sauerland will move on but Abaraham's career and earnings prospects lie in shambles.

    AA must get a new trainer. If he keeps the same trainer, he will remain the same. Basically, it's change trainer or retire.

    Against someone like Ward he will surely look bad, anyone will look bad against Ward. Put Abraham in there against someone similar to his style and you have an action packed fight. An action packed fight that will miraculously drag bag the clueless idiots like yourself as "fans" of his style.
