    After Saturday night, its obvious why Arum never let Pavlik fight Abraham.

    He knew AA was too much man for Pavlik.

    What do you guys think?

      Probably thought what we all mistakenly thought...that BHop was too old.

      Watching BHOP destroy Pavlik was one of the years best boxing highlights though.

          AA would block Pavlik's **** all night and easily land everything he wanted to. Pavlik's chin would not hold up.

            I believe Abraham is going to go down as one of the best ever. His style is going to allow him to fight effectively until he is into his 40's.

            His style, like a reporter said, is kind of like his own version of the Ali rope-a-dope. Except he isn't getting hit as much. It's very deceptive and tricky for guy's to figure out. Not to mention he hit's like a freight train, and has the jaw of a moose.

              If he can win the Super 6 he's an ATG in my book.

              AA is the truth though. No more bull**** about "euro's can't fight"....This dude is a beast.

                True. Very true. With this guy there is no more ¨oh but those are tip taps¨, ¨he´s a slapper¨, ¨only wins when he fights dirty¨. Abraham is that good.

                People underestimate the way he handled Miranda. I would bet Miranda hadn´t encountered a physical specimen in his weight class that could be stronger than him. He sure did when he fought AA, and with much more ability to cope with PAAAAIIIN.

                  I forgot about that. The way he fought w/ that broken jaw hangin' off his mouth was ***in' wicked.

                  Truth be told though, I though Miranda won that first fight. They really screwed him w/ all the point deductions.

                    Even worse, the first fight should have been stopped. It was pure crookedness. The judges were bought, and the ref was bought. That should have been a TKO by Miranda, by stoppage. Totally unethical to let a guy with his jaw like that to continue to fight.

                    But in the second one... he obliterated Miranda.
