    Arthur Abraham should go back to 160 and challange GGG.

    At 168 he's not as powerful and most of the fighters are bigger than him so why doesn't he make a move back??


    I don't know how many more fights he has left but Abraham is a natural 160lbs fighter isn't he??? Don't tell me he can't make 160 anymore? I mean that's where he's at his best. In the middleweight division he's big and powerful and will have a much better shot to beat the top guys.

    Abraham vs GGG would be a great match-up at 160.

    Abraham would just keep his guard up. Apparently he's looking towards a Stieglitz rematch.

      Why? so he could get pummeled? King Arthur had his day but the Super Six aged him and its doubtful he can make 160 comfortably anymore

        i doubt he can make 160 lbs. he's huge. moving back down in weight late in a career is almost always a bad move. he was having trouble making 160 all of those years ago. now that he's adjusted to making 168 lbs he'll almost certainly have no shot of making 160. he'd have to lose a ton of muscle and water.

        abraham wouldn't have to get into horrible shape to walk around @ 190+

        i think he'll rebuild in europe and shoot for one more "world title" shot at 168, maybe even against stiggy.

          Same thing I was thinking. It's hard for veterans to just move back down after multiple years at a higher weight.

          Besides, he would just cover up, and once those body shots landed Abraham wouldn't want any.

            ggg would do an equally impressive job on abraham at 168...it would be a great fight for him to showcase his power one division north that's for sure
