Comments Thread For: Arthur Abraham Retires From Boxing, Has No Desire To Fight Again

[Scopedog]

I can't find anything to suggest that Abraham is a ****** other than this thread, what are you crackheads talking about? Do you just say that about every guy who's from every country that's vaguely near the middle east? Even if he actually is, so what? In recent years there's as much reason to believe that every redneck ********** voter is a ********* as there is to believe that every ****** is one.

On topic, it's been long overdue. His last fight was a couple of years ago now so like others in the thread I was surprised he wasn't retired already. Getting shut out by Eubank Jr. was probably the fight that put the writing on the wall. That said, he was an extremely good fighter in his prime with a strong record. I always liked his style, he was tough as rocks but fought smart and had very heavy hands. The first Miranda fight was one of those extraordinary fights that I think everyone should watch, it's probably the single most brutal fight I've ever seen that never fails to make me wince when I watch it. The highlight of his career was probably his brutal knockout of Jermain Taylor.

really? thats disgusting, didnt know he was a ****** ******

He isn’t. Zaruko is talking crap.

He had a good career, solid champion that's as tough as they come.

I remember him being very highly regarded going into the super 6. He was probably the top middleweight at that point.

B level fighter retires, ok.

[dirty fingers]

His jaw was hanig down and he fought on.

Respect on my ****** brother!

Pretty sure he is a Christian.

Yes, was never quite the same once he moved up, to be fair competition was higher too

[CasperUK]

AA was the bogey man Kelly Pavlik ducked back in the day.

And we have Arthur's DQ punch against Andre Dirrell to thank for the entry of Dr Shaw-Hi into boxing folklore.

Had all the heat going into the Super Six tournament, some had him or Kessler favorites. Didn't go so well for him once he got there.

Great career, esp. at MW. Enjoy retirement, champ!
