Just like to say angulo was a middleweight in the amatures, beat lightheavyweight champion jean pascal at middleweight and lost a close decsion to andy lee. Both like to come forward, both have cast iron chins, who takes this?
I think Abraham's power would be too much for Angulo and Arthur would stop him but I would be rooting for Angulo.
Angulo is a huge lighmiddle who has said in the past he will be moveing up soon, but with arthur now at supermiddle i dont think its ever going to happen
Abraham by KO, eventually. As someone who comes forward and leaves his face wide open to be hit, Angulo is pretty tailor made for Abraham. It would end up looking a lot like the Gevor fight.
On the face of it this is a mismatch, but I'm not sure it's as clear cut as some are saying. Abraham has 2 key features as a fighter:- 1) He hits like a mule. 2) He gives rounds away with his inactivity. Maybe I'm being naive but I'd give Angulo a decent chance is this fight as he can counter those attributes with:- 1) Having a solid chin. 2) Being a high pressure fighter who will win scrappy rounds with his workrate. Obviously there is more to this fight than just these attributes, but these are key factors. At 160 I'd still probably pick Abraham by KO, but I'd give Angulo a decent chance and it's certainly not a fight I'd be willing to put money on.
This^^^ Angulo does have a great chin for at 154, and I'm sure it would still be good at 160 but not good enough to take multiple power shots from Abraham (who is one of the p4p hardest punchers in boxing and IS the p4p strongest man in boxing). On top of that, Abrahams chin is just as good, probably better than Angulo's, so really I wouldn't give Angulo any shot at winning this fight.
Abraham by KO. Angulo is a warrior but he wouldn't have anything to hurt Abraham and Abraham would hurt him.
Angulo gets hit to much and there is nothing tricky or difficult about his offense. Arthur struggles with height, reach, and speed. Angulo does not have enough of any of those things. AA by KO.
I was going to criticize the OP for lack of a poll, but it's a moot point as it seems pretty unanimous. :yep Abraham KO. :good
It seemed he was bothered by Kermit's power who is actually always ranked high in the power category. AA by KO before round 5. Huge mismatch, would never materialize.
