Very good article, thanks Finn73, is it possible for you to translate it all? Or someone else who is German, the boxing fans will appreciate it. I would translate it but unfortunately I have no time to do it, I read it in German, the whole interview is awesome!

 

wonder why aa's brother turn out to be such a ***** when aa comes off pretty cool. must be inferiority complex.

 

Do you know how many jumps in a minute that was? Just curious.

 

10 km in under 40 minutes sounds very solid to me. Is this a time you have to expect from a proffessional fighter? Does he have to run it all the time during a running session or just when he has to go all out?

 

For those looking for the whole interview: I used google translate, and it's quite enjoyable: http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?hl=hu&ie=UTF-8&sl=de&tl=en&u=http://www.tagesspiegel.de/zeitung/Sonntag-Arthur-Abraham-Sonntag%3Bart2566,2979076&rurl=translate.google.com&usg=ALkJrhg3hMwzJpVEheWWnQ0xTH4B7Zr-TA



This part was probably the best I've ever heard from King Arthur. I had to work on it a bit.

Bertolt Brecht liked boxing, but he wrote: "Competitive sport begins where healthy sport ends."

AA: He was right. It's unavoidable. Golfers suffer from the back, tennis players from the shoulder, soccer players from the knees. With that said, I am doing quite well. Look at my hands and ankles, spotless like a piano player.

Right. Only two titanium plates and 22 screws in your jaw...

AA: It doesn't bother me. So I was in the locker room after the fight, and they said: "Lie down here to me". I did as someone came there with a syringe. I asked "What are you doing"? "Nothing, nothing, nothing." And then I slowly fell asleep, but in the ambulance I heard my fans shouting "Arthur! Arthur! Arthur!" I woke up in the hospital the next. "What happened?" I was wondering. "They operated on you", they answered. Everyone was sad, my manager, my coach, my dad, all very sad. They were down more than I was, so I encouraged them: "Hey guys, whats up with you? Be happy! It'd only be bad if I had my jaw broken AND lost to this ******. I'm the Champion!" :happy

Come on, even Booradley's heart has to respond.

 

That was an excellent interview. Good questions, good answers.

 

Arthur has two more fights to win before I have to jump on the band wagon. However, I have been practicing up by making the occassional positive comment.:tong
