    Tom. You are just lowering your expectations as you did before the Miranda fight. I do the same thing a lot so I know what that is like.:lol:

    Cool.

    Well I want Abraham to win of course, so all I can say right now is that I respect your dad, he seems like a really great guy from what I've seen and heard, hope he's enjoying his stay in Germany. :cool:

    His performance against Lorenzo impressed me, a true warrior indeed!(he even said hello to us German viewers after the fight :good)

    Will you be watching the PPV with your family?

    It would suck if weight became a serious factor and made it so that these guys weren't facing each other at 100%. Obviously Arthur winning sets up big fights for him, which I want to see, so that's great (and missing out on that for such a stupid reason would be terrible). On the other hand, if Raul were able to dig down and pull out an upset, that would be amazing in its own right - but would be a hollow victory if tainted by AA being drained.

    Marquez will cave once Abraham comes out from behind his shell.

    Well if Abraham is weight drained for his fight with Raul that would only speed up the process of him going to 168 which is what we all want because besides him and Pavlik 160 is pretty much depleated. But I predict a 7th round KO for King Arthur.

    It's a bad fight for Marquez style wise because he is dealing with a guy who can punch in AA. Marquez does not jab, but he does have a good chin, but no speed. Marquez is a good body puncher, but he just walks in now, only now he is slower at doing that lol. Marquez will have shocked the world if he beats AA. Marquez is one of the brightest if not the best spanish/english speaking latin boxing commentators in boxing today. If he retires, he will be good for boxing mark my words. If he wins, you have to give him props because AA was on top of his game...

    I just can't see Marquez taking Abraham's punches, Marquez doesn't have much of any defense so he'll be looking to trade in there and make this a war. If he can take AA's punches then this could be a long tough night for both guys.

    I'm not expecting him to be able to handle that kind of power, Abraham by KO in 6.
