Abraham: "The stieglitz loss has cost me millions. That hurt me more than the eyeinjury itself."

The last fight between them was stopped in round 4 due to a nasty eye injury.

AA explains: "I simply did not have the desire. I didn't get into the fight at all. This time it will be different. I will show him who's the boss. I will put pressure on him from the first minute".

Abraham has added a nutritionist to help him prepare and the results show. This time Abraham has only had to shed 2 kilos in the final week. Earlier he has had to shed a whopping 8 to 9 kilos.

This is code for, I will throw my hardest shot in the first minute and if he throws back I will clam up and throw 10 punches the rest of the fight.

Yeah. He isn't fooling anyone. Abraham has fought the same way all those years.

[Bierstadt]

Honestly he says this before every fight but then it's the same old predictable Abraham.

Hope I'm proven wrong, but history testifies otherwise.

When is the main event CET by the way?

Has Abraham ever pressured a top level opponent early? You'd think he'd be good at getting guys out early with his exceptional power and more than decent chin but he seems reluctant for whatever reason.

Stieglitz just improves on his performance in the rematch. KO in 4.

He really does not like getting hit. And god forbid you hit him in the midsection as he will vociferously complain to the ref on totally legal shots.

I think it's 23.00 CET. Thats when the danish transmission starts.

You would have to think that the save money would be on Stieglitz, Abraham has looked old and past it in his last couple of fights although perhaps he wasn't in the shape that he should have been in. Abraham has the power to win this so I wouldn't completely rule him out but i'm going with Stieglitz albeit by decision this time. I don't see Abraham being stopped after being dropped to the canvas, maybe on his stool after taking too much but i'm going to stick with it going the full 12.
