Its tough to say really, Abraham usually does start slow and he just got overwhelmed, there was no way Stieglitz could have maintained that pace for the whole fight, he threw so many punches with intent and he landed a really big right hand that made Abrahams eye completely close. Abraham wanted to carry on but his trainer said no. Abraham would want a rematch because he knows he could do better than that, but he is getting old and has had a lot of tough fights now so maybe he is coming to the end of his career. I dont think Abraham like everybody else expected Stieglitz to start so fast and that was deciding factor in the fight really.

I take nothing away from Stieglitz though he did what he had to do and he won every round easily and Abraham had a point taken off too for hitting round the back of the head a couple of times at least. Who knows who he will fight now, I think Groves-Stieglitz would be a cracking fight though if that could happen.
