    I wouldn't say the most feared man in boxing, but he is definitely avoided if you ask me.. Abraham really just wants to fight the best at 160, but if he wants Sturm, then they are going to have to dish out a lot of cash.. I'm pretty sure a fight with Pavlik will happen later this year after Pavlik defends against his mandatory Rubio..

    He turned them down for a top 10 P4P fighter. JuanMa beats ANYONE at 122, and by KO most likely.

    He's the top man in his weight class, but not the most feared man in boxing.

    He will fight Caballero down the road. He didn't completely dismiss him as you're implying, all the man said was he'd rather fight Vazquez now.

    At 160 he is the president of the who needs him club, though saying that Winky is still there kicking about. I think the guys at super middle wouldnt mind having a crack. A move up will be good for him imo.

    Do your fact checking before you post out of ignorance.

    AA had a mandatory with Raul Marquez for the IBF title.

    Arum was not going to offer step aside money because of past relationships with him and he felt he deserved a shot at the title.

    Trust me, Kelly wants AA. It will happen. He wants to unify the MW titles.

    and it did not happen in a conventional way and it would not have happened. There is a big difference between paulie and AA: when it comes to punching power they are on different ends of the spectrum. A puncher like AA is always in a fight. So this example is irrelevant.

    You guys calling these fighters scared to fight one another are a bunch of little girls.

    Nobody is scared of JuanMa, Margarito or Paul Williams.

    There are matchups some guys dont want because of the risk/reward factor.

    Once these "feared" men get their big fight, they will then look out for their best interests like everyone else.

    I dont think he is the most feared, but he is feared by some. As he racks up the KO's and remains unbeaten he becomes more feared, but there are still a few guys out there that can beat him. The question is will they even fight him and if so will they beat him? Sure Pavlik can, Winky can, and even Paul Williams can, but without the right gameplan, training, and motivation it will be near impossible cause Abraham is damn good.
