At least from what I read this morning in Steve Kim's column.
Here is an excerpt from the article that's on max...com:
As for IBF titlist, Arthur Abraham, "I think that's a next year fight, I don't think it's this year," stated Dunkin. "He's gotta fight Raul Marquez and he's gotta take care of his mandatory. He's got a television deal in Germany, he's gotta stay over there and fight and the only way he can come to America this year is if he loses a purse bid. And we're not in a purse bid, we're not the IBF.
"So I don't see that fight happening this year and I think it needs time anyway. I think he needs to come here a couple more times. We're not going to hide from it; it's the toughest fight out there. It's the two best middleweights in the world and I think I got the best and it's a great fight. But it's gotta be a fight that you get paid."
Bob Arum mentioned that they would look at the results of this weekend’s bout between WBA titlist Felix Sturm and Randy Griffin to see if any possibilities exist of fighting the winner
