    Abraham moving back to middleweight after Super Six?

    http://www.monstersandcritics.com/ne...r-Froch-defeat

    This sounds disastrous... didn't he fight like trash in his last couple of middleweight fights because he was totally drained?

    All of the Super Six would beat or have beat him.

    Johnson and Ward would beat him no doubt.

    He couldn't beat a top 6 SuperMiddleWeight right now.

        He needs to go on a diet, and return to middleweight.

        He was dominated by Froch partly because of his lack of height and reach, and he's not quick enough to overcome that by getting inside like Tyson.

        I'm about the same height as Abraham and weigh 180, yet my waist is 32" while Abraham's is 35". He's not in ideal shape. He could lose some excess fat and become a better fighter at 160.

            His stocky frame is going to make it near impossible to fight comfortably at 160 for him now. With that said, Sergio Martinez would give him another lesson if he can.

              Abraham gets crushed by every legitimate MW in the world.

              He needs to go down to MW and fight Euro level bums for the rest of his career.

              Arthur Abraham is a disgrace to the sport of boxing. Ugly too.

                His problem is the same as the other big punchers--they fall in love with their power too much and don't realize how important other aspects of the game are.

                  Ulli Wegner pulled out the last drop of confidence out of Abraham's body by publicly calling him a yellow coward after the fight and even reiterating his comments the next day to german media.

                  Abraham himself cancelled his flight home to Berlin and instead booked a seat on a plane carrying his fans back to Germany. Onboard the plane a remorseful AA excused his performance big time.....
