So Abraham vs. Marquez will be on PPV...

Do we know the actual basis of charge or do we have to wait utill these dates? Verbal, physical? etc? He said, she said?

 

Good question. If Pavlik beats Bhop in a convincing fashion, he will have retired Lockett, Bhop, and by default, Calzaghe who wants no part of him now. So, if there is no Joe, then HBO wants this unification bout. Listen to Max Kellerman in the post fight. Who else are they going to match Kelly up against? No one else at 160, who will actually fight Kelly, worth mentioning.

 

Kessler, Mundine, Bute, Froch at 168 perhaps.

 

Abraham and Sauerland say that it isn't true and will file a charge against the woman.

Details in German (newspaper: "Die Welt"):

Der IBF-Weltmeister im Mittelgewicht soll auf der Insel Rügen während eines Trainingslagers eine Masseur-Praktikantin sexuell belästigt haben. „Das wird sich klären. Ich habe mit meinem Anwalt gesprochen und werde gegen die Behauptungen mit einer Anzeige wegen Verleumdung und übler Nachrede antworten. An den Vorwürfen ist jedenfalls nichts dran“, sieht der beim Team Sauerland in Berlin unter Vertrag stehende gebürtige Armenier keinen Grund, nervös zu werden.
Die strittige Situation soll sich im Sauna-Bereich des Hotels zugetragen haben. Arthur Abraham soll die Angestellte gegen deren Willen geküsst und zu einer sexuellen Handlung genötigt haben. Nach dem Radiobericht sei man im Hotel allerdings verwundert darüber, warum sie nicht einen der jederzeit erreichbaren Alarmknöpfe gedrückt habe. Die junge Dame ist mittlerweile nicht mehr im Hotel beschäftigt.

Quick summary:
The contentious situation took place on the 10th of march in the sauna area of a hotel in Rügen, Germany where AA prepared himself for the fight against Ayala. AA allegedly kissed the woman, a massage trainee, against her will and forced her to a sexual action (no details available). The hotel management is astonished at the statement of the former hotel service employee, because the hotel (and sauna area) is equipped with panic buttons.

 

She (a masseuse) says

- he gave her a soul kiss
- he wanted her to oil his dick and tried to force her to do it after she refused to do it.

A counsel for the prosecution says that the penalilty would be between 6 months and 5 years. (Probatition is possible for up to two years.)

The lady's boss doesn't believe what she claims because there was an alarm bell in the sauna (where the incident took place) and a lot of people next door.

AA sued the woman for libel.

Oh, Finn already answered your question.

 

Thanks for the details guys. A typical, "she said, he said". Did she make this complaint right away or did she wait till now? That always seems suspicous to me. Make sure that any memory or evidence is long gone then file a complaint.....

 

Fight is going to be in Bamberg, Germany on October 4.

 

I wont be buying that. I hope marquez beats his ass, abraham is prolly the most overrated guy on here. If he does get by the old-as-hell marquez, he will lose to any stiff competition.
