Born in Kosovo, the 29-year-old Krasniqi (46-4, 17 KOs) is a former European and WBO International Light Heavyweight Champion, who resides in Munich, Germany and packs a thunderous punch. Three fights ago, he moved down in weight from Light Heavyweight to Super Middleweight, winning all three bouts at the new weight class and looking highly impressive.
En 2013, Krasniqi lost his first world title shot by way of a 12-round unanimous decision to defending WBO Light Heavyweight World Champion Nathan Cleverly (25-0), a Londres, by way of a hard-fought 12-round decision.
Following his first career defeat, Krasniqi went on to capture the WBO International Light Heavyweight Title with a seventh-round knockout of previously undefeated Emmanuel Danso (20-0), and has since defended that belt. Krasniqi won the vacant World Boxing Association (AMB) Continental Light Heavyweight Title with a 12-round unanimous decision over Oleksandr Cherviak (14-3-1).
En 2014, Krasniqi successfully defended those two championships, taking a 12-round unanimous decision from Dariusz Sek (21-1-1), which set up his second world title shot, Març 21, 2015 a Alemanya, against long-time defending WBA Light Heavyweight World Champion Juergan Braehmer (45-2) in a massive all-German world title showdown. Krasniqi was unable to answer the bell for the 10º round but learned that he should drop a weight class. Since moving down to Super Middleweight, Krasniqi has looked impressive but Abraham will surely be the biggest test of his career.
Rated No. 2 per l'OMB, Abraham (45-5, 30 KOs) has positioned himself for another world title shot as the winner of his Apr. 22nd eliminator with Krasniqi will become the mandatory challenger for reigning WBO Super Middleweight World Champion Gilberto Ramirez, de Mèxic. Abraham lost his WBO crown by way a 12-round unanimous decision to Ramirez in Las Vegas in 2016 but must win against Krasniqi to have an opportunity at regaining his title.
The 37-year-old Abraham, a native of Armenia who lives in Berlin, Alemanya, is a two-time WBO (Organització Mundial de Boxa) Super Middleweight Champion, as well as the former International Boxing Federation (FIB) Campió mundial de pes mitjà. The knockout artist has a remarkable 18-4 (9 KOs) record in world championship bouts and is 7-4 (4 KOs) contra antics o actuals campions del món. Noted victims during his 16-½ year professional career reads like a Who’s Who of Boxing in the 160 i divisions de 168 lliures, incloent campions del món Raúl Márquez, Héctor Javier Velazco, Jermain Taylor, Robert Stieglitz tres vegades, i Giovanni De Carolis. Abraham també ha derrotat a oponents de classe mundial com ara Martín Murray, Paul Smith dues vegades, Lajuan Simon, Edison Miranda dues vegades. Khoren Gevor, Sebastian Demers, Kofi Jantuah, Kingsley Ikeke i Howard Eastman.
Quatre de les cinc derrotes d'Abraham en la seva carrera han estat davant dels campions del món Carl Froch, Andre Ward, Robert Stieglitz i Gilberto Ramírez. Stieglitz és l'únic oponent que atura Abraham, who has won nine of his last 10 baralles, the most recent an eighth-round technical knockout of Tim Robin Lihaug (15-1) this past July in Germany for the vacant WBO International Super Middleweight Title.
Aviat s'anunciaran lluites addicionals de PPV.
