Abraham won hands down, but Stieglitz gave him some good work. He faded the last part of the fight, but I felt he put enough rounds in the bag before he did. Props to Stieglitz for taking some bombs and not going down. Kind of a boring fight though :\

Stieg doesn't look like a fighter that won...that's put it that way.

I really felt AA would KO him. Credit to Stieglitz for taking some hard shots.

I never thought Abe would win this fight. good job Abe. Froch is waiting and so is Kessler and Dirrell and Ward. But fight Bute for the easiest fight.

Close fight and I'm happy for AA. First meaningful win in a long time for him.

Really? I thought that it was pretty good. My expectations were low though.

I had Stieglitz edging the fight, but it was really close and very competitive. Abraham looked better then I expected.

Thought it was a close fight, could have gone either way.

If anything, I thought Abraham edged it.
