    Just noticed that Robert=Sergey :patsch :roll:
    He's Russian actually. I didn't know that.

    I pick Stieglitz by decision.

    Why is it that Abe, since moving up in wieght seems to fight so disinterested for the first 4-5 rds. I mean he throws so few punches that it's tough to give him any credit for what work he does do early in fights.

    Steiglitz has a tendency to throw caution to the wind though trying to put exclamation points on his punches while he's landing regularly. He could become overly confident with Abe's lethargic start.

    Either Abe is gonna catch Steig during one of his unguarded assualts and KO him, or Steiglitz will box smartly throughout and build up a large enough lead that he can fight defensively through the last 4-5 rds and still win............

    That is IF the judges aint bought and paid for by Abes backers.:-(

    hmmm I think Stieglitz will box home a UD12 here. Abraham is too slow and plodding for him.

    Really tempted to put some bucks on Stieglitz by decision. I don't rate him to be honest, but Abraham has been exposed as being completely unable to handle movement and a high punch output. Stieglitz definitely does have a good work rate and moves a lot. He doesn't necessarily have great footwork but it might suffice to stay away from AA's wide telegraphed swingers.

    Then again, Stieglitz's chin is average und Abraham might put him to sleep.
