Arthur Abraham: Th third fight will be decisive
10:42 24.03.2013
Robert Stieglitz reclaimed his WBO super middleweight title from
fellow German Arthur Abraham on a technical knockout after three
rounds on Saturday night.
Referee Mike Ortega stepped in to end the bout before the fourth after
consulting with the ring doctor.
`My eye is closed. I can’t see anything with my eye. I wanted to let
him punch a bit and then start punching myself from the fourth, fifth
rounds,’ said Abraham, who was born in Armenia but fights out of
Berlin.
`If he won, he won. Now the third fight is the decisive fight,’ added
Abraham, who dropped to 36-4 (28 KOs), TSN reports.
Stieglitz also indicated the likelihood of another bout between the two.
`I’m always happy to fight Arthur Abraham,’ Stieglitz said. `I hope
the managers reach agreement. I’m ready.’
