I HOPE STIEGLITZ WILL GIVE ME CHANCE FOR REMATCH - ARTHUR ABRAHAM
March 27
I hope Robert Stieglitz will give me a chance for a rematch, stated
now former WBO Super Middleweight Champion, Armenian boxer Arthur
Abraham, who has neither health nor vision problems.
"I have no problem with my eye, I can see, [and] everything is all
right with me," Abraham said.
As NEWS.am Sport informed earlier, Arthur Abraham was unable to defend
his WBO Super Middleweight Champion's title. In the bout, which was
held on March 23 in Magdeburg, Germany, Abraham, 33, was defeated,
by technical knockout, to former champion Robert Stieglitz of Germany,
and thus Stieglitz, 31, regained the champion's belt. Abraham suffered
an eye injury from the punches he received. At the end of Round 3,
the fight physician checked Abraham's swollen eye and, as a result,
he stopped the fight.
Following this bout, the Armenian boxer demanded a rematch from
Stieglitz.
"The third fight between me and Robert Stieglitz will be decisive. I
sustained an eye injury and, as a result, my eye closed completely. I
hope Stieglitz will give me a chance for a rematch, since our score
is 1-1 so far," Arthur Abraham said, the Armenian boxer's press
service informs.
