Arthur Abraham is looking good today

[TheGreatA]

Abraham looks awful still. Everybody knows he has a great ability to give and take a punch, Bute's sorry performance doesn't need to add to that.

Unfortunately he doesn't have enough skill to be a factor in the super middleweight division.

I wouldn't bet on his chances against a pre-Froch Bute (who could very well be damaged goods now) even with his advantage in power and ability to take a punch.

REALLY?

So who cares that he was completely Out-Classed against Dirrell, Froch and Ward...as long as he has a good chin then it is ok for him to lose? lol

Boxing fans today are ***in WEIRD, they lower the bar so low for fighters today to be considered "GREAT" if you stand and get your face smashed, these idiots are ready to put you on the P4P List

**** outta here, Bute probably landed more clean punches on Froch in 5 rds than AA did in 12.

A midget at 168, a division full of boxers.. big boxers. It was bad for him, real bad.

Abraham doesn't explode out the blocks like Froch does. He also has nowhere near the consistent pressure.

True, but unless you keep him at bay like Ward and Froch, he'll always explode with some wild flurries (like stablemate Huck), and then anything goes. Both Froch and Ward took a big one in round 12, and they've got way better insticts to ride it out. I'd assumed Bute had the movement to keep Abe at a distance, but doesn't look that way now.
