    Former IBF middleweight champion and Super Six contestant Arthur
    Abraham (34-3, 27 KOs) won a 12-round unanimous decision over Piotr
    Wilczewski (30-3, 10 KOs) on Saturday night.


    In the bout at the Sparkassen Arena in Kiel, Germany, the Armenia-born
    boxer looked more aggressive than in his recent fights, but he met
    some tough opposition from Wilczewski, especially in early rounds. The
    German-Armenian stepped up pressure against the Pole in the eighth
    round, removing all questions in the eleventh. Eventual scores were
    118-109, 118-109, 119-108.

    Fightnews.com quotes promoter Kalle Sauerland as saying that the win
    makes Abraham the highest-ranked challenger in the WBO ratings and he
    will face the winner of Stieglitz-Groves.
