At MW he had a reasonable (I say reasonable) shot at beating Sturm and Pavlik, those 3 guys are the only meaningful match ups at MW.
This is a crying shame for boxing, even if Arthur does fight at MW again he's clearly now very unhealthy there.
Yep!!! Its a crying shame, Arum could have made this fight happen but he shy away from it for some reason, Its obvious AA could has been struggling to make the weight for about one year and a half now, He even came over to the states to fight miranda just for the pavlik fight to happen but arum didnt fancy it, Sturm was offered the fight as well and he turn it down without even negiotating..its just disappointing.

Unless Abraham has a lot more in the bag I don't see him making any waves at 168. He just looks like a really, really ordinary fighter that can **** a bit to me. No way he is even competitive against someone like Kessler at 168 IMO.
I would have picked Pavlik to win a very wide decision over AA.

I don't really think Abraham is all that good either, but the fight was a necessity for Pavlik's resume and he blew it. I think Pavlik would've beaten him, but Kelly still looks like a straight up ***** for not fighting him. If Williams can't get a fight at 147 or 154, we better see Pavlik man up and take that fight, or my respect for the guy will totally go out the window.

If he is going up to 168 I wonder who is going to fight for the soon to be vacant IBF strap at MW.....I hope Pavlik and Sturm can fight for it so we don't have to be teased again with another unification fight down the road that won't happen.
