Arthur Abraham vs. Fulgencio Zuniga

[Tom_Tocca]

I just want to know if this fight would be ok for the end of 2007 or if Zuniga isn't a worthy challenger for the IBF middleweight belt?

Not a bad match-up......but i rather see Abraham fighting Taylor / Pavlik....
whoever wins that one.....

[Maxime]

Everyone would rather see Abraham fight the winner of Taylor-Pavlik but we all know that's never going to happen before then end of the year.

[Tom_Tocca]

Abraham and his management will decide next week if he is going to take another fight before the end of this year - so Zuniga could be a possible opponent....

[bumdujour]

zuniga is good, but technically too limited.

if abraham brawls with zuniga, it will be fun. but i doubt it. his trainer is very very cautious.

look for a rather dull UD for Abraham. he has too much skills.

No, but Zuniga can easily make middleweight from his looking...

[PolishPummler]

Abraham is a very good and very durable fighter.

AA by UD.

Zuniga would enable Abraham to look good. He throws punches to create a sense of danger, but he doesn't hit very hard and is easy to tag.

He's a tough guy and fun to watch, though, and he's certainly a credible opponent.

No Zubniga can easy make 160. And he said he wants to fight the best at 168 and 160. He started at 154.

no his not a worthy challanger. Sure the win over Oganov was impressive, but Oganov wasnt really ranked that high to begin with. AA fighting Zuniga is a step down. He has to fight guys like Forest, Spinks, Taylor, Pavlik, Green, Mora etc.

Its fight going to happen in the USA this time ?
