Not that long ago Arthur Abraham and his team was adamant in returning to 160. It now seems as if he cannot get down and that he'll continue to campaign at SMW.

He cant make 160 without killing himself. Physically hes an 168 pounder but he has to risk more and higher his workrate, throw more combinations and be more fluid.

I know about all the trouble he had making 160, but his limitations at 168 is there for all to see. I cannot see him getting it done at the world level at SMW. On the other hand there's a multitude of great match-ups to be made at 160.
