Abraham vs Stieglitz 2 RBR undercard & discussion

Wow... Nvm Im glad they're showing this.

Why they showing the Groves fight? Didn't he already win?

I bet Frank Warren is spitting his dummy out right now...
Ooh well another flagship star lost.

[Sparked_26]

Yeah If it was a 1 round fight...
Audley Harrison would get knocked out by a welterweight if the fight went longer than 4 rounds.

He'd be looking for a way out if he didn't take him out early for sure.

Honestly drifted off to sleep for a few minutes there, what were the scores?

98-93 x2, 97-93

You might be right on Audley maybe fighting Helenius next though, looks a plausible fight for him...
Helenius is just plain terrible funny what a 0 in your record can do for you.

Always liked GG, but still showing some wasted motion, really noticeable in this fight because the opponent was just guarding himself mostly. If he fights AA he will have to cut that movement down because conserving energy against AA is important...its soo tempting to tee off on him while he shells up. Doing it patiently like Froch is the way, the wasted movement of Groves works to Abe's advantage. He has the footwork, but you do have to stay somewhat busy against AA to keep his hands up so I expect he will have to stay in front of him like this against this guy.

He is quite powerful though. He might be able soften Abe up a bit if a mounts an attack.

It would be a great fight I think and if Groves gets KO'd he could rebuild and come back. He's still a baby really.

I picked Stieglitz cause he's at home and good odds but Im not so sure about my pick.

He is, he's definitely getting better too. I think he should able to outpoint AA because the blueprint it out and Abraham himself has stamina issues...but there are always pitfalls against Abe. Because you already have to stay busy against AA to keep his hands up, the wasted motion in between action is what might be a downfall for GG in that particular fight. Same as Jermain Taylor who wasted a ton of energy rocking around for no reason. Froch wasn't wasting anything. It's different for Steiglitz who shown a gastank. GG has gotten tired at the end of fights before so it would be a good end ot the fight.

Still think he should beat him though, but maybe Stieglitz takes care of that! main event time

Stieglitz = More complete, better version of Groves with slightly less power and no wasted movement.

10-9 Stieglitz.
