Comments Thread For: Hearn Challenges Abraham To Fight in Manchester

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Martin Murray's world title dreams were shattered again after he lost to Arthur Abraham in a split decision in Germany.

The St Helens star gave it everything, taking the established champion the distance yet missing out on the WBO world super-middleweight title.

Scores of 115-112, 112-115 and 116-111 were a little harsh on Murray's performance although with Abraham making the most of a supposed low blow early on, and the referee eventually docking the challenger a point in the 11th, it was the outcome British fans feared.

Abraham has a mandatory he has to face. He can't be giving rematches to guys he already beat just because Hearn wants him to.

[The Conundrum]

Abraham has a mandatory he has to face. He can't be giving rematches to guys he already beat just because Hearn wants him to.

And his mandatory is easy work. Ramirez is way too green. He passed on facing DeGale because he knew he would get smashed. They're taking a chance with Abraham because he is old and looked s*it vs Paul smith the first time and Murray at the weekend. But Abraham still has too much experience for Ramirez at this point
