King Arthur Abraham believes the solitude of Zinnowitz will help him
to be in top shape for his clash with Jermain Taylor on October 17. The
undefeated German takes on the former undisputed middleweight champion
in the first Group Stage of the Super Six World Boxing Classic. A
sell-out crowd of 14,000 fans is expected to attend the clash in
Berlin´s famous o2 World Arena. Abraham moved his training from
the German capital to Zinnowitz, a small island in the Baltic Sea,
ten days ago.
"This is the perfect place to get in shape. I have been here countless
times. The fresh air, the beach, the sea – it is perfect. We have
great facilities and everything we need to prepare."
"It is good to get out of Berlin. There are too many distractions
in the weeks before a fight. Here in Zinnowitz, all we do is eat,
sleep and train. To be honest, there is nothing else we could do
here anyway."
"Taylor is a great champion. He is a legend. But he will not beat me
in front of my home fans in Berlin. I have analysed him closely. He
was winning against Carl Froch on points but then he was caught. He
is very strong and I am sure it will be a spectacular fight", he said,
