    what? doesn't both AA and pavlik fight at 160 lbs?

      He is one of the main reasons why I made that thread about Abraham being weight drained. Many other posters are starting to repeat the same thing.

        Wake me up when these two cherry pickers fight anybody with a pulse. I've brought this up before but I think Paul Williams has ten times the fight anybody attitude than these two guys do. And I'm saying that knowing there's a possibility he may not be able to beat both in head-to-head matchups. But I would actually lean more to him beating them because they are not impressive boxers in my opinion. All they got is power.

          i know pavlik is tough but he needs to tell arum to **** off and fight abraham already, he is the only competition at the weight, or atleast give williams a chance at the titles.

            i don't get the weight drained theory though... if both fight at 160 lbs, then how can AA be weight drained?

              AA has talked about moving up to 168 and only staying at 160 for a potential unification bout with Pavlik. Somehow that translated into "Arthur is dying trying to make weight".

                that's ******... if AA can't make 160 lbs then just move up. 168 lbs is said to be a deep division now.

                  I have thought about that after Abraham`s last title defense... It was against Lajuan Simon (completely punchless guy...)

                  That guy managed to wobble Artur and make him turn into survival mode in the fifth i guess (or in the eighth... i don`t remember)... Maybe Abraham just underestimated the guy and trained badly for the fight, but, anyway, he didn`t look good that night...
