Middleweights : Artur Abraham vs. Jorge Fernando Castro

[Woldemar]

12 rounds,who wins?

[goose 5]

A war ! Very hard to call this one.

[giacomino]

Abraham had an iron chin, and the fight would have been Germany, so I would go with Abraham by something like 7-5, 8-4. In Argentina, I would go with Castro in a close decision, something like 7-5

[scorpio83]

Abraham would win a decision in Germany, Castro would win a decision in Argentina or either way by decision in a neutral country in a classic fight.

Abraham had more. If Castro shows up as lethargic as he did versus Terry Norris and Roy Jones Jr (two that i admit were a level above him) can you imagine that??

While I agree re: Norris and Jones, they were much different fighters than Abraham. Castro was an easy mark for Norris and Jones IMO, two super fast fighters who could move and easily beat him to the punch. Abraham was far more methodical and not nearly as quick, which would give Locomotora a decent chance, although I would probably pick Abraham on a neutral site. Definitely a distance fight because both had great chins to go with solid punches
