Arthur Abraham vs. Andre Dirrell postponed until March

That sucks.

This fight is going to be boring as hell anyway. Unless Dirrell took some tips from Andre Ward.

Abraham by... Robbery. No way he lands enough early enough on Dirrell to win. So this is bond to be a robbery unless Dirrell can KO him. I think Dirrell has some pop he just needs to set his punches better.

Flu last for a two days. Not two months.

Thats true with me too, the flu only last about 2 days with me. Plus, doesn't AA magically get the flu all the time? Does he know how to wash his hands? Because they say that if you wash your hands that it reduces the chance of getting the flu dramatically.

It's in the US so with a biased ref and so on Direll is bound to get all the help he could ask for.

When will ya get it that this "breaking news" meant ****...even if admitted by Sauerland, it's more like a public stunt b/c neither Direll or Abraham are much of a draw to sell even 4.000 tickets anywhere in the states (except maybe for California with a big Armenian community)...

I don't know where somebody got this info from.....In Germany there is no news about it....Not on Sauerlands homepage or ARD or on the big newspapers...

Maybe we've got an insider here

[COACH WEBB]

just heard that the flu rumors are false!

here is the press release

ress Release: Team Sauerland has dismissed rumours suggesting that King Arthur Abraham's Super Six World Boxing Classic clash with Andre Dirrell is in jeopardy due to the flu. “There is absolutely no truth to it,” Team Sauerland General Manager Chris Meyer said. “Arthur is 100 percent fit. On Saturday, he even attended a charity event for children in Dortmund. Arthur is impatient and excited to find out the venue for the Dirrell fight. He cannot wait to get in the ring with him.” On Saturday, German charity organization Kinderlachen honored King Arthur for his charity work, awarding him a prize for his community activities

That sucks....did AA already kick his ass in a street fight? Lol. He don't stand a chance in hell against AA anyway. I can tell you what's basically going to happen. Dirrel is going to run around in circles trying to penetrate AA's shell, then AA will stike out at him a couple of times....it's only a matter of time before he catches Dirrel with a good shot and he's going down.

AA by ko or tko. Easy.

Edit; he might even beat him with the flu!

AA has gone the distance a lot of times before.Dirrell's a skilled fighter with a good reach as well.The idea that AA can just stand with gloves on his face will get him beaten

Greg L. is an attention wore, that's all...and maybe he got paid by Shaw to release this "breaking news"...Shaw might have thought:"Damn, I can't sell this fight anywhere in the States to Andre's advantage. So why not try a promotional ploy, saying that AA is sick and therefore the fight has to be postponed - maybe Sauerland plays into my cards with Abraham being lazy at camp...duh, just tried to work, but amateurs like L. meant to be no good."
