Arthur Abraham vs. Raul Marquez, including written previews,videos and more

It's like winning the lottery. :nut

 

this fight is a major mismatch. Noone's fault but the IBF's, and even then its not really their fault considering how weak the division is

 

Warriors 'forgot' to edit the 2nd Abraham-Miranda fight into their little preview... I guess the KDs were too violent for the public. :happy

 

Any info on the weigh-in? Tom?

 

Arthur Abraham 160
Raul Marquez 160

 

Any pictures?

Will Abraham be weight drained?

 

Abraham looks pretty bad... I mean he always look weight-drained, but now the smile disappeared and he looks weak...

I guess Pavlik at 160 (maybe Sylvester if he beat Sturm) or go to 168 right after this one...

 

AA by KO before the 8th.:good

 

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing! Guy is small! Might move a lot and box, who knows, but eventually, if AA is in decent shape, it's goodbye and goodnight! AA had better be in shape and give his best; he didn't perform that well in his Ayala fight. Whenever he fights guys whom he doesn't respect, you feel he doesn't prepare as well and he fights down to their level too, a bit - doesn't help his development though.

If he cannot get Pavlik by this time next year, nor Wright, he should move to 168. The challenge would make him a better fighter.
