    ZWICKAU, Germany (AP) -- Armenia's Arthur Abraham retained the IBF middleweight title Saturday in a rousing 12-round brawl with Kofi Jantuah.

    Abraham calls himself the ''Smurf Champion,'' wearing a floppy smurf hat in his ring entrance while a children's song plays.

    It also looks weird when they put that stupid wreath on the winner.

    So that people think nice things about them, despite the lessons to be learnt from their history (and their pop music, holidaymaking habits regarding towels and hairy-pitted frauleins)
    If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

    Is it better when an old man is taking himself very seriously with a leather mask over his head? B-Hop

    Suppose it could be argued that the smurf look isn't quite as intimdating!

    Intimidating - an old guy wearing a latex mask?...hehe

    To me he looks like a clown with that mask.

    This all a psychological ploy. Some guys wear things to intimidate their opponent while others were things to get their own adrenalin and motivation pump up. It may work something like this. "Well here it goes, I am wearing this stupid thing in the ring and everybody in the world is laughing at me and calling me gay; but now I am going to rip their friggin lungs out!"

    I'll try to explain Abrahams walkin music and the smurf stuff...
    Some 20 years ago the was a dutch music act,with a singer called Fadder Abraham,he
    invented the smurf-song,don't ask me why...,but it was a huge hit in Germany .
    So with Arthur Abraham having the same last name as the duch guy,some idiot
    must have had the idea,to reanimate Fadder Abraham,make a cool remix out of the song
    and put Arthur and his trainer a smurf hat(or is it like bilbo said,a penis ?!?) on.
    My guess is that Abraham is forced by his management to do this...
    ...

    Or he could just be trying to line himself up with a good piece...like this one:
