ULLI WEGNER: “ARTHUR ABRAHAM TO BE SUPER-CHAMPION BEFORE THE END OF YEAR”
Ulli Wegner is convinced that Arthur Abraham will be the undisputed middleweight king by the end of the year. The undefeated 28-year-old takes on Lajuan Simon on March 14 in what will be the ninth defense of the IBF title he won in December 2005.
“I am sure he will be the super-champion before the end of the year. However, we are not thinking too far ahead,” Wegner added. “Our full focus is on Simon now. He has not lost any of his 24 fights so we expect a hard battle. Arthur needs to be in top shape to defeat him.”
