haha I pissed myself when I read that. Not sure if you were being sarcastic or not but it sure sounded funny.
Abraham pulls out of the toughest, most manly sport on earth becuase he has a cold :p
Most fighters would have fought on, Winky had flu through his fight with Soliman and could barely speak.
It's rather ironic that Abraham fought bravely for 12 rounds with Miranda with his jaw hanging off his face, but pulls out of this fight with less than 24 hours becuase of a runny nose and sore throat :rolleyes:
Re: Athur Abraham - WEAK AS PISS
When I've seen AA's face during the weigh-in, I predicted Raul to KO him... AA was too drained... Good that he caught some cold virus in the morning... ;D

haha I know, he can survive nearly a whole fight with a broken jaw, yet can't with the sniffles? Sounds to me like he was having a hard time making weight and needed an excuse. It's not much you can do though, I just hope Marquez dominates him when the fight actually happens.

Ironic?? Maybe if he had a worse cold before the Miranda fight and had chose not to pull out, it would be ironic. Sounds more just like bad luck to me. Why would there really be any correlation between physical pain he overcame in a fight to win, and not wanting to enter the ring sick for another one? Having said that it does sound like a bit of a BS excuse to me but who knows.
Re: Athur Abraham - WEAK AS PISS
If hes ill hes ill its a career here. Its not as if he is in anyway scared of Marques, who lets be honest hasnt been brought in to beat Abrahams.

Are you speaking out of knowledge of boxing or hate for Abraham?
Don't expect him to NOT knock Marquez out.
Re: Athur Abraham - WEAK AS PISS
They say they stopped the fight from happening due to Abraham having Flu-Like Symptoms. Abraham was 6 Pounds over the weight limit less than two days before the weigh in. He had to melt off more the day of the weigh in. For the record, I will list below the symptoms of Dehydration alone for comparison:
If dehydration is allowed to continue unabated, when the total fluid loss reaches 5% the following effects of dehydration are normally experienced:
- Increased heart rate
- Increased respiration
- Decreased sweating
- Decreased urination
- Increased body temperature
- Extreme fatigue
- Muscle cramps
- Headaches
- Nausea
- Tingling of the limbs
- Chills
He does not have the flu. He simply struggled to make weight. The doctors saying flu-like keeps Abraham from being fined and perhaps even being stripped of his belt.
Arthur has become too big for a Middleweight and it is just a matter of time before he moves up.

Hate for Abraham, he's not my favourite boxer in the world.

If Arthur Abraham moves up then its more likely we will see Kelly Pavlik vs Arthur Abraham :)
Re: Athur Abraham - WEAK AS PISS
they showed his fight with Miranda and I was shocked he carried on. I would never say he was weak to not fight. I have all the respect for him after that fight. His jaw was broke and blood was pouring out. Randy Newman was a bias crap ref bought by the German promoters but that is another subject.
Re: Athur Abraham - WEAK AS PISS
Ever since the Miranda fight he's been overprotected, he didn't even try to fight: Hopkins, Taylor, Pavlik, or anyone else of note in the division or in 168.
Abraham hasn't even bothered to fight his own countrymen who are any good.
Yeah he looks like the weight is an issue, he looks gaunt and hollow eyed. Hey Pavlik, Miranda, and Taylor couldn't make weight anymore either, there is no fault in that BUT at least fight someone decent, there's NO reason to delay a fight like this infact there is no reason to fight this fight because Marquez is a has been.

That is defo the fight I want to see, and at 168 it would be a cracker
Re: Athur Abraham - WEAK AS PISS
What a shame, was looking forward to seeing him fight again
