Comments Thread For: Abraham, Stieglitz Are Ready To Battle on EPIX

Showcase fight my ass. Neither Broner nor Quilin have fought fighters of Froch and Ward's caliber yet so STFU with your Ameri-hate.

Try to turn this into a Broner thread all you like, Abraham being called a champion is a disgrace, mate.

Showcase fights.

This fight though... wow. Abraham looked like he didn't even belong in the ring with Froch and Ward, and now he's called a "champion????"

Disgusting.

Abraham wasn't that bad against Ward, poor against Froch though, but they're two top 10 pfp fighters and future legends of US and UK boxing respectively, it's a tough standard to be measured against.

An equivalent might be to measure champ Mosley against the superior Mayweather and Pacquiao. Again, a tough standard.

Abraham is one of the stronger fighters in my opinion. I sometimes expect him to be outboxed but he keeps imposing his will.

The fact that you're a bitter American, probably a fatass at that, stays true, though.

Thanks for this preview boxingscene. Nice to have some hype on a euro fight.

I very much enjoyed the first fight even though I had Stieglitz winning a close decision. Hopefully Stieglitz has recovered fully from the injuries he sustained from a domestic scuffle with his father in law.

Props to Abraham for defending in the former Champions hometown.

I very much look forward to this rematch.

I watched it this morning Batt, Abraham won the fight imo, 7-5. He just had too much power in comparison to Stieglitz. They might rob AA in the rematch to set up a trilogy.

R.1 - Abraham
R.2 - Stieglitz
R.3 - Stieglitz
R.4 - Abraham (close-ish)
R.5 - Abraham
R.6 - Abraham
R.7 - Abraham
R.8 - Stieglitz (v.v.close)
R.9 - Stieglitz
R.10 - Abraham
R.11 - Abraham (v.v. close)
R.12 - Stieglitz
