Arthur Abraham to fight Lajuan Simon

[-Antonio-]

I really hope Abraham gets a big fight this summer.

Sturm is a little *****, declining all offers and sitting it all out. King Arthur said that they were talking to Pavlik's people to set up the unification this summer, after both of their mandatory. It's the only fight that makes sense right now.

How can I believe you when you list the fighter's website as a source? The unnamed source isn't normally named because that's how it is. The writer heard it from someone close to the fight, which is realiable. A fighter's management saying so, is not.

Winky wanting no part translates to = Winky asked for too much money.

He's priced himself out of fights before. It wouldn't surprise me if he did that with Abraham.

[Addition]

Arthur Abraham says he'd tried to get fights with Wright and Sturm, but they wanted no part of him.

I'm hoping Pavlik will fight Abraham after Rubio.

Sturm is a ****ing coward, what a *****.

It might have been a person from Winky's camp who was 'close to the fight'. Since it's from boxingscene it's more likely that the source was american rather than German. Just saying...

I hope Kelly PAvlik will not duck Abraham like Sturm and Wright did.

He priced himself with Williams too, oh wait no he didn't. The source is a lot more reliable then Arthur Abraham's website saying so. If Winky Wright priced himself out, then why was Abraham willing to give Sturm a career high payday, but not money to Wright? The fight probably fell apart because of the payday, but Winky clearly wanted Abraham.

Tunney and Warp, perhaps you are both referring to seperate incidents. I don't know why their Jan fight didn't happen, but Wright has turned down Abraham in the past (over a year ago).

Pavlik-Abraham is one of the best fights that can be made in boxing.

It needs to happen.

Yeah, Clegg. This article basically outlines what's wrong with making a fight with Wright.
His money demands are usually pretty high.
