Arthur can bang too and has a height advantage over most Super Feathers.
Max, Arthur has very little chance against Valero. He'd be knocked out in the first 2 rounds.

No chance...there's a 30lb+ difference between the two.

AA = Alex Arthur :wink:
Ahh serves me right for not reading the thread in context....me was thinking Art Abraham.....let's just forget this clumsy moment shall we?

Easy mistake to make. Arthur is normally referred to as AAA (Amazing Alex Arthur) too.

Michael Gomez is a lot of things, but world class isn't one. AA has been matched cleverly (which Warren fighters aren't) since Gomez did a number on him. I very much doubt he'll end up in a World title fight where he hasn't got a prayer... hence my belief he'll fight Earl for WBO lightweight.

Why would he be knocked out In the first 2 rounds? When Valero stepped up It took him 10 rounds to stop Vicente Mosquera.

Unbelievable. Arthur moves from #11 to #3 in the IBF's February rankings. The cheque from SN obivously cleared then.
