Ulli Wegner: Once Arthur has hit his opponents, they will all have problems

PanARMENIAN.Net - 29-year-old Arthur Abraham, who is unbeaten in 30 fights (24 KOs), will take on Jermain Taylor (28-3, 17 KOs) in the opening clash of the hotly anticipated Super Six World Boxing Classic on Saturday, October 17, on Showtime.



King Arthur has been working hard in practice with his coach Ulli Wegner, who certainly fancies his fighter's chances in the tournament.



"This is something special for Arthur," he said. "He is facing the world's best fighters. For me, he is the favorite, but I have been reading a lot of stuff about him being smaller and thinner than his opponents. That does not matter inside the ring. Once Arthur has hit them, they will all have problems. Taylor better watch out. He is a great champion and a superb boxer, but Arthur will take care of business against him. The first fight is crucial to win. If Arthur succeeds, he can go a long, long way from there," fightnews.com cited Wegner as saying.
