    To go from an undefeated middleweight champion, to join a tournament against the best super middleweights in the world, never having fought at that weight, go 2-3 in his first 5 fights there and decide to stay, only to go on to win a super middleweight title successfully defend it a couple times, lose it, recapture it and defend it 3 more times. Its pretty remarkable stuff. Smurf hats off to AA.

    He'd be the perfect villain(middle eastern of course) in any movie, only to be defeated by a white guy in the end. So that makes him the second best. Pretty good overall.

    Yeah great guy. Nowadays he is clearly past it, but he was a force in his MW days and wasn't afraid of challenging himself. Fell a bit short at SMW elite level, but he tried and entertained, also he gave birth to Dr. Shaw hi

    He's like the german version of Hansel. Eating all that cake and confectionery forced him to move up to SMW, but in the end he won a UD over that Witch. Unfortunatly he lost most of his white pebbles moving up in weight, if not I think he would have gotten the stoppage win.

    Abraham is a white guy. As are all Armenians.

    He has middle eastern looks, can easily play an Arab, Iranian, Turkish and so on. As can most Armenians.

    Yeah I got your point but he was kinda exposed in supersix. Before super six he was a monster and one of the scariest punchers in boxing. He was one of favourites going in to tournament but got outclassed more worst than expected, no one thought he would be that one dimensional. Super six kinda broke down his momentum and he is not same ko-artist anymore. Now he is going to distance with average guys and looks beatable everytime. He is still good sometimes and is difficult to anyone but his team really knows what is the level where they want to keep him.

    Stieglitz trilogy was cool.

    Good career but couldn't follow up for hype.

    Yeah I know but Middle Eastern are considered Caucasian, even according to the US Census.

    Arthur Abraham is P4P a better German Champion than Wladimir Klitschko.

    He is higher than him on the great list

    Neither is Arthur , but they are both German based boxers.

    Stig , Huck and Sturm are not German either but they all represent Germany. Clown.
