‘King’ Arthur Abraham (41-4, 28 KOs) will defend his WBO Super Middleweight crown against Paul Smith (35-4, 20 KOs) on February 21 at the O2 World in Berlin, Germany, in a return of their September showdown in Kiel.
In their first meeting Abraham retained his title with a unanimous points victory over the former British Champion. However, many felt the judges’ scorecards failed to reflect the close encounter, leading to immediate calls for a rematch.
‘’I’m a man of my word,’’ said Abraham. ‘’I promised Paul that I would give him a rematch after our first fight in Kiel. I will honour that promise. However, Paul should be careful what he wishes for. I’ve already beaten him once and this time I plan to win in even more spectacular fashion. On February 21, I will knock him out!’’ [Click Here To Read More]
