Armenian professional boxer Arthur Abraham winning the title of the
World Champion by the IBF version arrived in Armenia for several days
on the invitation on Unibank. During today’s press conference he told
about the latest game and future plans.

26-year-old Abraham mentioned that during the match against Shannon
Taylor he wanted to win with a knockout as he had great advantage
over him. “Be he was physically firm and this time I didn’t manage
to win with a knockout”.

Arthur also mentioned that although he represents Germany, after
winning he always raises the Armenian flag, “The organizers do not
allow me to take our flag to the ring before the match, but after
the match I do it by all means. It’s a pity that I do not represent
Armenia but I have more chances to succeed there”.

On May 13 Arthur Abraham will have another fight in Germany, and at the
end of the year he intends to organize fights against American boxers,
“It is not an easy thing to organize fights. My manager offered Bernard
Hopkins and Jermaine Taylor to fight with me, but they refused. No
one wants to lose the Champion’s belt”.
