    Abraham retains super middle title on points over Smith

    Arthur Abraham retained his WBO super middleweight belt by defeating
    Paul Smith of England by unanimous decision for the second time on
    Saturday, the Associated Press reports.

    The judges scored their rematch 116-112, 117-111, 117-111 in favor of
    Abraham, who again dominated in the face of a spirited challenge from
    Smith. Smith was angered to lose their first bout in September in
    Kiel, Germany, but there could no doubt about the winner here.

    The Armenian-born German seemed comfortable taking Smith's punches and
    was more effective with his own, delivering punishing barrages that
    the Liverpudlian did well to weather.

    Abraham improved to 42-4 (28 KOs) after making the third defense of
    the title he won back from Robert Stieglitz by split decision in March
    2014. Smith dropped to 35-5 (20 KOs).
