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.
If Arthur Abraham moves up then its more likely we will see Kelly Pavlik vs Arthur Abraham
That is defo the fight I want to see, and at 168 it would be a cracker
