Coming Saturday night, Arthur Abraham is going to face Kofi Jantuah. I am looking forward to this fight. Abraham is not just another boxer, not just a champion, he is a true fighter.
What are your predictions for this bout?
If you wish to bet on this fight, please reply in this thread - I got Abraham to win. :)

Arthur Abraham has shown over and over again that he has what it takes to fight. Edison Miranda on the other hand hasnt fought anyone other than an old Howard Eastman in which he was ROCKED and was dancing in the ring. Arthur Abraham has never been rocked in his career. This is the difference between these two fighters. Miranda needs to slow down cuz hes gonna get an ugly 1 in his record if he doesnt.
You obviously do not know your boxing! Styles make fights, and Abraham is the PERFECT style for Miranda to dismantle. I can't wait to the fight to shut you up and have you pull your cock out of Abraham's ass!

Very good points. I somewhat feel the same, it is never good when they rush a fighter. 1 belt in just 3 yrs is more than enough, they should slow down a bit and be careful on the next Abraham fight.
Lacy learned that too late and it looks like Abraham will too but he will be KOed not just beaten.

No time to slow down... Abraham has until August to satisfy the IBF mandatory against Miranda. After AA gets his ass handed to him he will have plenty of time to rest (and need it!). :D
Arthur Abraham won last night, fair and square. But the fight was close, he was having problems. Near the end of the fight his opponent was holding a lot.
Arthur Abraham is moved too fast a little I think. He has only been a professional boxer for three years. This fight was hard, another fight in three months only is too soon, he needs a little break I believe.

darchinyan's the man.
No dansweeney is the mannn ;)
oh by the way, you can watch Darchinyan's fight LIVE June 3rd on Showtime (non PPV) 9pm EST.
It is one of 2 fights shown from the June 3rd card on Showtime Championship Boxing, the other of course is Castillo vs Corrales III right after Darchinyan.
That's what boxrec says, but the negotiations start Monday. Hopefully Abraham will come to the USA to fight. He needs the exposure over here anyway, especially if he thinks Taylor will ever look his way.
Oh how i wish he comes here, I will be at that fight LIVE no matter where it is in the States.
Wow, such great times for Armenian boxers and their fans, our undefeated streak continues (knock on wood :) ) Now we wait till June 3rd for VIC and VANES.

Its going to be an awesome fight.

he wasn't well past him prime before the first fight was he? look taylor has achieved more than abraham has thus far has he not? how can you guys compare winning a vacant belt to beating bernard hopkins? its rediculous. i didn't see the fight so i was busting balls there, but abraham has yet to face anyone remotely near the level of even a past his prime bernard hopkins. abraham is a paper title holder, he is not the real true middle champ. until he beats the man who beat the man, and that is taylor he is no champion.
Taylor is the linear champion and Abrahams belt isn't worth shit. That's right and we really don't have to discuss this.
But this doesn't mean that Taylor is the best MW out there and that Abraham has achieved shit yet.
I'm really looking forward to Taylor-Wright because that will tell everybody just how far past his prime Hopkins was when he fought Taylor (and a lot of ppl believe that he at least won one of these fights).
Abraham had a solid win over Eastman, demolished Ikeke and is yet undeafeted without any hometown decision and a good KO record.
Abraham and Taylor both still have some questions to answer. Of course Taylors win over Hopkins was more impressive than everything Abraham has to offer so far but only time will tell just how impressive it really was. :)
he wasn't well past him prime before the first fight was he?
The time interval between the first and the second fight was 4 months. If he was in his prime during the first fight then he wouldve been in his prime for the second fight.
Hey buddy your the won thats predicting fights. Who said anything about Abraham being better than Taylor or Taylor being better than Abraham? Your the one thats bagging on Abraham and continuously hating on him.
Allright, you bet 1 billion (and several houses if you wish) on Miranda by KO or TKO and I bet 1 billion against it.
Do we have a deal? :)
DEAL! (Googler, tell your Mom to start looking for an apartment for mid August)
