Arthur Abraham-Raul Marquez Lands in Bamberg on Oct. 4

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

King Arthur Abraham will return to the ring on October 4 when he defends his IBF middleweight title against mandatory challenger Raul Marquez. “It will be a tough fight,” the unbeaten 28-year-old (27-0, 22 KOs) said. “Marquez is a strong fighter and he deserves to fight for the world title. But I will not disappoint the fans in my home city of Bamberg. The belt will remain in Germany.” [details]

Let me be the first to say good luck to Raul, don't go in there with nothin other then a slick performance and W on your mind kiddd!

Middleweights Kelly Pavlik and Arthur Abraham are keeping the mw division alive and in the spot light because of several simple reasons: Both are KO artists that have a piece of the mw title and fight, in this day of age, relatively frequently at 3 fights per year...

Marquez better not try, and puch with Arthur like he did against Lorenzo or it will be a short night imo. that being said the ****er has a great chin.

[KESSLER]

This is gonna be a ****ing fight. I got Abraham if anyone wants to bet.

[Clegg]

I'll put 10k on Marquez if anyone wants to offer me 4/1 odds.

Abraham defending his title against a guy who Jermain Taylor KO'd four years ago... if AA doesn't stop this guy, it will be disappointing. Marquez cuts pretty easily too.

[Silencers]

Marquez got beaten pretty badly by Taylor and he couldn't get by a past prime McKart, his best days were at 154 as well. I just think Lorenzo was way too hyped, I never thought he was anything other than a power puncher, Abraham will win this one sidedly IMO.
