i dont think people realize just how untested

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

It's not like there haven't been offers and big ones too.
But I doubt Sturm moves up when he makes middle easy.

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 agree... arthur hasn't really had a test....i think miranda was the one good oponnet he beat, but who else has he fought? he wouldn't fight pavlik....

If Oral had any power to speak of, Abraham would've been in trouble in their fight. He was hurt once in his previous fight against Simon also. Maybe his chin will be better at 168, but I don't understand how the man who took Miranda's best shots is all of a sudden getting stunned by Oral and Simon.

I can see his inactivity hurting him against Taylor, especially early since Taylor is a fast starter and AA is a slow one... both guys fight in spurts, and Taylor's hands are quick enough to catch AA when he opens up his guard to mount his sporadic attacks.

I believe it's a longshot for Taylor to KD much less KO Abraham, but don't count it out. Taylor has a recent history of putting guys with hyped chins on the canvas.

Overall I got AA by late KO though, unless Taylor goes back to Pat Burns.
