1. I did not think so, what is your point? 2. Even you don't believe that, especially with "bob arum" as sauerlands negotiating partner. 3. Arthur has called out pavlik on 2 or 3 occasions, it is not "limited" to press releases. 4. Miranda was one of the hardest hitters that cracked arthurs chin. Arthur came to america and made miranda look worse then an amateur. 5. Even a rumour about fighting BUTE makes your point invalid and pointless.:deal Y
Rumours, calling out, bull**** in the press: It is ALL just talk. Arthur looked perfectly fine against Oral, but now he is leaving the division after he and Sauerland ran their mouths non-stop, AND said a January date would be fine with them. That is called ducking.
Somewhere I posted a quote from a front page article about another fighter saying exactly the same thing about Saurland. He negotiates with him self in the pres....
So if Sauerland is "all just talk", what does that make Bob Arum:rofl:rofl? "build youself up arthur" but we will negotiate with mora arthur makes miranda look like an amateur on us tv arthur fights American marquez, who beats supposed up and comer lorenzo. Marquez quits arthur fights a journeyman in Simon, not looks good but does what he has to and wins arthur fights a game oral on Showtime makes him quit Breaking News! Arum wants a fight with Sturm who is the 2nd coming of De La Hoya to the american public! What happened to make a name for yourself Boo? THe least arthur or Sauerland are doing is "ducking", your opinion, believe it if you want, but pretty sure most posters are not. Downgrade arthur all you want, ONE THING you cant do is say arthur or sauerland are ducking, that is ludicrous.
Very good possibility he loses , ass whooped, not happening. Kessler is going to rely on his jab that is going to be hitting arthurs high guard, followed by a couple of arthurs counters, Kessler has never been in there with a puncher that hits as hard as arthur. Trust me, NOBODY is going to "whoop" his ass"! And I will stand by my comment, arthur is going to be a force to be reckon with at 168. Hopefully there is no "ducking" him.
You opinion and I respect it, I already acknowledged he has a high chance of losing, but quite a beating don't think so. Remember this is going to be at smw, NOT MW obviously, hopefully arthur comes in looking and feeling like he did against miranda.
Miranda<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Kessler. Arthur's workrate and wildness when leading would not fai good against the dane. IMO he would get whooped.But I'd give Abe good chances against anybody else.
Well id didn't go 12.Sartison got KTFO in the last one so it didn't actually go 12. It went 12 as Kessler seemed unfocussed,started slow,Sartison ain't such a horrible fighter in the first place(altough not anything special) but Kessler did what he had to do and the fight was terribly one-sided after the middle rounds. Besides going 12 or almost ain't bad.When you lose it's bad and maybe not even there.
Feather fisted Oral was getting behind that high guard and he had a 1/2 inch reach disadvantage. Guys like Kessler and Pavlik can do more damage in those first three 'feel out rounds' Arthur likes to give you than Oral and Maquez combined on the same night.
Arthur has a tendency to not look the best against fighters he is supposed to dominate like Oral, jeez you guys make it seem like arthur is supposed to never get hit with a "jab" or "lose rounds".:huh
