One week after his twelve-round war with Edison Miranda, IBF middleweight champion Arthur Abraham has checked out of the Protestant Jungstilling Hospital in Siegen. “I've recovered from the operation and I feel good,” the champion said to the journalists. “Having the belt on me is the most important thing of course. I fought hard to defend it.”

King Arthur struck a blow against speculations about a possible end of his career because of the double fractured jaw. “In a few weeks I will take up the fitness training again,” the 26 years old boxer said. “In about two months boxing training will follow. The jaw has been set by two titanium sheets and the healing process goes on. It doesn´t cause any problems.”

He also dismissed a recent statement by Miranda, who said he considers himself to be the true winner of the fight and denied having used dirty tactics.

“That must be a joke,” Abraham commented. “He obviously lost on points. Usually the referee would have disqualifed him. Miranda was cautioned because of three low punches – everybody at the arena, every television viewer could see it. Some of the other hits below the belt were punished by the referee. It was an intentional and brutal head butt – it was obviously seen on television. Moreover there´s no denying that Miranda had been punching after the round was over. Maybe he should watch the fight again before talking such an idiotic bullshit. I still think that Miranda is an unfair sportsman.”
