Comments Thread For: Abraham-Smith Rematch is Set To Go in February

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

WBO super middleweight champ Arthur Abraham headlines the first Sauerland show of 2015 with a defense of the title at the O2 Arena in Berlin against Paul Smith. As for date Bild writes that it is February 21 while I heard February 14 last night in Oldenburg.

Abraham won what seemed like a close but deserved win over Smith earlier this year but the wide scorecards - 117-111 twice and especially 119-109 - created some controversy. [Click Here To Read More]

Can't wait for the same result

Smith did a lot better than I expected but the result was clear even if the judges were a bit harsh on Smith. Smith and his team has done a great job in making people think it was a bad decision. Oh well the first fight was fairly good, so a second one should be decent too, especially if Smith gets beaten up.

Arthur for me won convincingly the first time there's actually no need for a second fight. I still don't understand the uproar that followed the fight.

AA must be getting good money. I don't think most people had a problem with the result, it was the scoring.

War Abraham!

It's obvious why it's happening again.

Abraham gets another non-threatening title defence where he'll almost certainly get the win on the cards no matter how close it is.

Smith gets another title shot and a payday.

Eddie Hearn and Kalle Sauerland get to wank each other off

Is Smith still British champion? Only under BBBofC rules I thought it had to be defended at least once a year & he's not defended since June 2013.
