Abraham, 30, says “After my defeat in the United States against Andre Dirrell, I would love to fight in Berlin’s O2 World Arena. The Arena is my fortress.” That won’t be happening. The Abraham-Froch bout will take place in Froch’s home city of Nottingham, meaning that Abraham is going to have to be really bringing it in terms of his offensive fire power, because it won’t be easy beating Froch in his home.
