Smith v Abraham rematch

Paul won't be listening to Eubanks advice after he's seen what happend vs BJS

Arthur will on Saturday because he has the ability to raise his game. We saw vs Steglitz in the rubber match Arthur might be lazy at times and that comes with 20+ title defences and years at top level but when he needs to he can get serious and last time he may have been caught napping. He's motivated in this fight for a money spinner with sturm in the summer so he'll be ready

Smith may have made adjustments & be improved from last time. It'll make it a good fight to watch but he won't win the exchanges that matter and if he tries to he will be playing into Arthur's hands. Abraham 118-112

So you see it as a draw then yeah? ;)

I think Smith can win this and will do :cool:

Abraham knocks Smith out ;D

The notion that you can't win a decision in Germany is complete and utter nonsense.

Smith's body attack hurt AA last time but there wasn't enough of it, he was shit scared of leaving any room to be clouted. Understandable.


Smith drops a decision again or gets stopped late for me.

I thought Abraham won the first fight...albeit the scores were too wide.

A part of me wants Smith to win...just so there's no Abraham-Stieglitz 4 ;D

yes Smith was afraid to pull the trigger all the way in the last fight and that may have cost him. I believe he will be more aggressive this time and throw caution to the wind and that is why Arthur will knock his ass out by the 8th round

If Smith sees this as 'last chance saloon' and really puts himself in line to do all the right things then he'll win because really I feel the fight was his to loose last time. He just needed a bit more variation in his punches (more with up and down) and he needs to move when AA punches, take his punches away and walk him on to shots. Keep the fight long.

Anybody who beat AA, kept the fight long.

Smith did enough to deserve the respect of a close decision.

The scoring was a joke!

I hope he can start a bit faster this time.

A bit weird that Smith thinks Eubank Jr and Abraham have the same style :confused:

4 hours

Price needs to start launching that right hand

Price took a decent left hook, thankfully just missed his ear
