for real though... AA HAS tried to make fights happen... he cant FORCE sturm and winky to fight him. Id like to see him fight duddy then... and the showdown with pavlik you would expect is inevitable.
He may not be able to get the BIG fights, but why is he not fighting decent fights? There are a ton of better fights out there then who he is choosing. You can not blame the public for hating on him. He is not acting like a champion or someone who has any confidence in his ability.
Btw, what do you think about his mandatory - Lorenzo/Zuniga? Is any of those guys decent opposition to AA or another gimme?
easy money............and making a ***** of himself for it. just like a *****. easy money is not always something positive.
He isn't the real champ, just the top contender to the real champ - and before he's not getting this shot, he will stay busy - that's economics...
Neither guy is too good imo, but at least worthy of a title shot. I want to see Abraham fighting the big names by now. All he is doing is facing his mandatories when he has to and nobody worth while in between. Plus, as I experienced first hand, Wilfred is going to keep pulling all his strings and making sure these opponents step into the ring with the most frustration possible. He will do everything in his power to make their stay miserable in Germany. From the time they get to there, until they step in the ring, these fighters will know they are there to lose. And if that doesnt work he will make sure he runs the show and tells the doctors, refs and judges how to do their jobs. It really is a shame he gets away with this crap. It ruins the worthiness of boxing in Germany.
How come that a lot of foreign boxers enjoy their stay in Germany? I never heard Brewster, Byrd, Harris, Rivera to name a few, complaining about their stay in Germany? Abraham - Zuniga/Lorenzo is likely taking place in the US - so no home advantage this time...
Elcock is **** by world standards but even he made Abraham look crpa for a few rounds. Abrahams would not beat any real top 10 fighter outside of Germany. This is going to be like Ottke, Beyer etc with dodgy decisions against real opponents or KO wins against crpa opponents.
