As a television commentator Smith is world-class, but as a boxer he is not on my level!<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019I don\u2019t understand why the English media spoke about a miscarriage of justice. I don\u2019t select the judges and neither do my promoters. However this time, I will relieve the judges of their responsibility. There will be no doubt, I will show no mercy and Smith will not hear the final bell!\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>If any additional motivation is needed for the German champion, it comes in the form of a potential mouth-watering domestic clash with long-time rival Felix Sturm.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019I have dreamt of a fight against Felix Sturm for many years,\u2019\u2019 said the 34 year-old. \u2018\u2019That would be a huge event in Germany. It has not been possible in the past due to conflicting television partners, but with Team Sauerland\u2019s new cooperation with Sat.1, that dream could soon become a reality. But first, I must defeat Paul Smith on February 21 at the O2 World in Berlin.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Judgement Day: Abraham vs. Smith II is available to watch live on Sat.1 in Germany and Sky Sports in the UK. British heavyweight star David Price (18-2, 15 KOs) is also in action, he takes on Irineu Beato Costa Junior (16-2, 14 KOs), while rising German star Enrico Koelling (16-0, 6 KOs) defends his WBA Intercontinental Light Heavyweight title against Mirco Ricci (13-2, 4 KOs).
