[BattlingNelson]

Arthur Abraham has just given an interview to german broadcaster ARD. Abraham is to defend his IBF middleweight title in 14 days, but appears to have weight trouble.

Abraham stated that he was 8 kg. (about 17 lbs) over the middleweight limit today and that he has to be very careful what he eats to be able to make the weight.

He also stated that he wants Pavlik soon.

damn, how is he that much overweight so close to a fight?

Looks like Abraham will have to battle the scales before he gets to battle Moby.

He's placed Joan Guzman, Nate Campbell, Rid**** Bowe, and James Toney in charge of his dieting plans.

Abraham won't be at middleweight for long.

Infact, he might not fight there again.

He definatley won't fight Pavlik there.

Pavlik and Mundine both walk around at about 79 KG's. Its around one week before the fight that they loose it. And thats just through a bit of dehydration.
