That would hype up the unification fight, assuming they both win anyway, to massive levels. It is just the best set up for the fans period. Abraham/Marquez will not be competitive, so it is perfect for an undercard in terms of quality. Anyone think Abraham would go along with it? It could be sort of a tough sell. I mean, he could go back to Germany, call it the main event, and thirty thousand people would show up. It is a shame. It is that sort of thinking that slowly, long term, has kept knocking boxing down a couple pegs. If there was any organization within the sport it would be easy to book something like that with eyes on the future, but in all likelihood it just won't happen.

Both those fights on the same card would be a PPV that I'd have no hesitation in buying!

Both of these fights are pure bull****-there is absolutely no reason why either fight should take place!Comment

I agree, scap, but Abraham has to fight the fight or get stripped. That leaves Pavlik with nothing to do. At least he picked an interesting opponent anyway.Comment

Good post, good idea. Don't know if Abraham's people would be up for it though. The fight with Marquez in the U.S. gets them very little, but of course in Germany it would rake in dough.
It's a matter of whether HBO wants to appease them by making it worth their while $$$. Even then, Abraham's people would have to weight whether the added U.S. exposure is worth losing out on the Euro money.Comment
