Arthur Abraham vs Gerald McClellan at MW.Who wins?

[The Gully Gad]

They would be scooping AA off the floor around the 4th 5th rounds...

[Benncollinsaad]

Lets not get carried away. We all know what happened when McClellan met Nigel Benn, fighter with the same height and build and fighting style as Abraham. Ok, I won't say that Abraham is Nigel Benn, but he would have a much better chance than you think. McClellan's big problem was that he was not a very good defensive fighter. And it showed in the Benn fight.

Nah that performance was something else from Benn that night
it was a one off for one night only..It was his glory night only to be overlooked by the dreaded ending...

[boxasmash]

Probably McClellan but don't overrate him now.

It's possible. Right now I'd say Abraham has a better chin than Benn and Benn was easier to hit than Abraham. Benn was more active though.

Since his tragedy, McClellan has been way overrated. AA has too much boxing skill and plenty of strength to deal with him.

McClellan was a beast in the offensive department, but his defense wasn't very good. AA can win against anyone in MW/SMW by KO and he's underrated in regard to this comparison by most of the people who gave their vote. It's a pick'em fight for me, but I would root for AA, because his punching power is devastating (he's the second coming of Benn related to punching power) and his defense is effective.

yeah man alot of people seem to be underrating AA, he is one strong mofo maybe the strongest guy p4p in boxing right now. armenians just seem to have that natural strength, anyone remeber naz he was armenian i think and he was one of the strongest guys around for his time. very rarely shaken by a punch and could **** like very few in the division.

id still favour mclellan simply because he has a slightly better chin and slightly better power. we know that he took shots from jackson and continued, mclellans power was also devastating. he had a right hand that has to be one of the best ever and had more speed in his punches.

that would be one of the biggest factors io, AA throws loopy punches and hooks, g-man would counter with harder, quicker shots down the middle. i think g-man would take it (maybe by the dec.) but it wouldn't be as easy as somepeople think.

[catalinul]

McClellan would crack him.

G-Man by KO

Great breakdown guys.

Yeah but that was at SMW and many(including myself) belive McClellan entered the fight having already been traumatized.

Personally I think McClellan used his jab and the ring good.In terms of skills I'd definetely give it to him si him winning by decision is not completely out of the question.

[Tom_Tocca]

The Key in this fight would have been the hand speed and activity which clearly favours the G-Man...though, he got sloppy at times but only lost and got frustrated vs stick'n'movers (except for Benn)...I see McClellan winning a clear cut decision, about 8-4 rounds...
