/PanARMENIAN.Net/ King Arthur Abraham (31-0, 25 KOs) opened the Super
Six World Boxing Classic in style on Saturday night when he knocked
out Jermain Taylor (28-4, 17 KOs) with six seconds to go in the 12th
round. Fighting in front of a boisterous sell-out crowd of 14.200
fans at the famed o2 World in Berlin, Abraham connected with a huge
right to the head to send the former undisputed middleweight champion
down and out. "He was good, but I was better," Abraham said. "It was
a great fight in front of a great audience. Now I look forward to
returning to America."

After a slow start, Abraham gained control of the contest and was ahead
on all three scorecards going into the final round. He hurt Taylor
with a big right in the ninth but the American superstar proved his
chin and continued. Just seconds before the final bell, King Arthur
then landed a devastating punch to clinch the first three points of
the tournament. "I had been waiting for a hole in his guard the whole
night," Abraham said. "I finally found it," Boxen.com reported.
