Three weeks after his IBF championship belt was stolen from his car at Miami International Airport following his impressive victory over Edison Miranda, manager Wilfried Sauerland surprised IBF middleweight champion Arthur Abraham with a special gift during a team dinner in Berlin, a new IBF belt. "I know how much the belt means to him so I tried very hard to get a new one," Sauerland said. "It's of big symbolic value to him. I was very impressed by his performance in Florida. I know he can beat every opponent everywhere." King Arthur was overwhelmed. "It is not the same to be world champion when you don’t have a belt. I spoke to Mr Sauerland a couple of days ago to find out when I could likely get a new one. He said that might take a while. Now I am really surprised and very happy about this special gift." Abraham also thanked his coach Ulli Wegner and all Team Sauerland members for their support. "It would have never been possible for me to clinch all those victories on my own. I am very grateful to have such a great team around me and thank everybody very much."

Someone stole Abraham's belt in Miami? I wonder who did that?

Why, could it have been Edison Miranda and his gang of thugs, erm, his corner? Or maybe the Casino Indians who have a piece of his promotional contract? After that "Alex Abraham kicked me" hooplah, I wouldn't be surprised. Whether it be in the ring or from the back of a car, robbery is the only way Miranda was getting Abraham's belt.
