It is an absolute insult to boxing that this is a PPV! This doesnt even qualify as an ESPN/Spike undercard type show.

Boxing has thick skin. It doesn't get insulted as easily as some of it's yenta fans do.

Crap fight between a washed-up ex-paper belt holder and a bum who keeps getting title fights even though he's never beaten anyone with a pulse and loses every round of said title fights. WTF would pay $25 to watch this?

The fight is a PPV disgrace with a washed up fighter and any sensible boxing fan knows that.

giacomino here...Arthur Abraham a Paper champion? IBF champ at m 2005 to 2012 was it??? WBO sm champ 2012-2016 (one year out.....) as far as Krasniqi.......(lost UD for the belt vs Cleverly four-years ago TODAY!). He started career 1-2 w/win against a 0-7-0 and the loss against a 0-3-1 + his own debut.
I would not judge him as harsh as your doing!
Abraham may-be washed-up but..he wasn't ever a paper champion. You just like to complain. How I see this!

You equate longevity as an alphabet belt holder with being a "world" champion. I don't, especially when the guy with the belt lost badly the only times he fought the top guys in his division (Froch, Ward). Krasniqi has fought two title fights and lost both badly and has never beaten a
top-25 opponent. You may say that's complaining and this is a legit "title eliminator," I say those are facts.
