I know it's unlikely but if Abraham has slipped alot and smith pulls it off on Saturday does anyone know if kalle and co will have options on him? He's not exactly gone down the mandatory route has he and usually when I fighter gets a shot like this there's options attached. If he wins expect kalle to throw smith straight in with groves to get groves a belt. Whatever deluded **** froch n bellew were coming out with on Saturday groves is in a different league to Paul smith and it would be another easy win for groves
AA is nowhere near the fighter he was pre Dirrell and Froch who took him to the cleaners but hes still more than decent. That said the game plan is there for Smith to work to. Fight at range and keep away from Abrahams power - not sure if Smith is good enough of powerful enough to make this happen though. Id image Sauerland have something going on in the back ground they are 0 mugs when it comes to getting their fighters pole position. This could be the first time and Englishman can get a decision on the cards in the Germany against the home fighter
A Smith win is unlikely, but he has a chance... Rumour has it that, unlike Smith, Abraham has not been putting in the hard yards.
I agree Groves would destroy Smith! Smith is ranked no 5 by the WBO one above James Degale! I remember after Smith won the British title last year he called out Degale for the rematch and im wondering wether Hearne would like this to happen whilst chunky waits for Froch to make up his mind about what he is doing. Anyway, this is all pointless talk Abraham stops Smith and Smith retires lol
Mate of mine has been sparring with Paul and says hes in very very good shape and fitter than hes ever been for this one , putting in a very hard schedule between sparring Stregnth and Conditioning ,Swimming and Nightime Track work , Hes sparred both Paul and Callum and said the talent callum has in unreal
Yeah, that's what I was saying: Smith has been training like a beast, whereas Abraham hasn't. Sorry if it wasn't very clear earlier.
you are deluded if you think he as a chance not good anough as british champion he should thank fw for getting a complete donut to win it groves and degale terrorised him
Abraham is a puncher who can barely box.. he's already been schooled by Froch and the former WBO champ etc.
When ever paul has stepped out of donestic class he's been mullered. He got beat by stevie bendall and (imo ) tony quigley and now he's going to go over to germany and beat arthur abraham?!?!?
