Experience will prevail over youth, Raul Marquez said, when he faces Arthur Abraham for the IBF middleweight title this Saturday in Bayern, Germany. It was Marquez' wealth of experience that earned him the title shot when he out-fought, out-boxed and out-slugged then-undefeated prospect Giovanni Lorenzo in June in a title elimnator in which only four out of thirty boxing pundits picked him to win. He will again be a huge underdog against Abraham but he is going to "shock everybody" in Germany, Marquez said. "The guy's beatable," Marquez told The Houston Chronicle. "Besides Miranda, who has he fought? And Miranda was just a Colombian guy with a great record who talks a lot, but that's it. Look at my record and look at his record. The names that I've beaten are probably better than the names that he's beaten. Look at the overall picture." Marquez is well aware that winning a decision in Abraham's adopted homeland will be next to impossible. "You know the saying – you have to knock him out in Germany to get a draw," Marquez said. It was for that very reason his team pressed hard for the fight to be televised outside of Europe. "We want to make sure it's shown here in the United States because in case there's controversy, in case I get a bad decision, I want to make sure that the people here in America and all over the world know about that."
