i dont think people realize just how untested

I don't buy his weight struggle at all.

He's 5'9 and not all that physically impressive.

I can see if he were tall and heavilly muscled..but he's not either.

He clearly thinks a move up is best for him, and he's struggled with weight for the last three years or so.

Time will tell when he takes on the bigger boys if his power can carry up against some of the gunslingers at 68.

Ought to be fun.

arthur abraham is..his best wins are against miranda who was overrated to begin with..i never understood the huge hype around abraham and on top of it he hasnt looked very good in his last performances..i personally feel that he will be exposed against taylor. real talk..i think taylor is going to knock him out in the middle rounds imo

I'll put 25 K on Abraham - is it a bet?

I might allow myself to get suckered into this bet.

The guy is huge. Clearly 158-159 is hard to make.

168 will be a different story.

He's like a less aggressive Clottey who doesn't get going until pushed to do so, or only when he chooses. That's all good and well, but it loses him rounds and makes him look super boring in the ring (hence why I disliked him at first).

I'm waiting for someone - hopefully in the tournament; maybe Froch - to really make him fight from the opening bell. The guy covers up well to the head, but if someone were to keep attacking the body I'm sure he'd be forced to open up and really fight.

AA got a stronger rep than maybe he should since Pavlik wouldn't fight him. He's good, but we'll see what he's made of at 168. Plenty of tough fights for him there.

He seems passive at times, but one thing he does seem to do is carry his power late.
It would be nice to seem him war early to see if his stuff equals the bigger guys stuff.

I agree 100%.

He is almost totally untested. I think he loses to Pavlik and pretty much all the top SMWs. I see nothing other than a one-dimensional ****er. One of the most overrated fighters on here. I would pick Kessler to pretty much shut him out.

It probably won't be Taylor because of his chin, but watch, he's going to get taken to school at some point in the tournament.

he is a hard puncher who fights in spurts and throws his punches down from his waist. his power is what wins him fights.. I would love to see sturm box this fool
