/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Dozens of reporters and camera teams attended October
13 public workout in the heart of Berlin as "King" Arthur Abraham and
Jermain Taylor gave a taste of their class. The two former champions
will open the hotly-anticipated Super Six World Boxing Classic in
front of what will be a sell-out crowd at the o2 World Arena here on
Saturday night .
Not just the German capital, but the international press and fans
around the world are buzzing with anticipation. Camera teams from
Russia, Denmark, Italy, Germany and America, amongst other nations,
were deployed to cover the training session.
King Arthur believes his opponent will be in for "an unpleasant
surprise". He said: "Taylor is good, he is a proven champion, but
he has never been in the ring with someone that punches as hard as
I do. He will find out on Saturday. I have a lot of respect for him,
but he will not beat me in my hometown. The Super Six is the biggest
challenge of my life and I want to be a star in America once the
tournament is over."
Taylor also took a lot of time to speak to the reporters. "I have a lot
of respect for Arthur as a fighter and I know he will be prepared,"
he said. "You can expect a lot of fireworks in the ring on Saturday
night. I had a good training camp in Houston and I’m well prepared. I’m
expecting to deliver a good performance which will lead to victory. I
know exactly how Arthur plans to fight me, it’s no secret. I will be
ready to counter anything that he presents," boxingscene.com reported.
