Abrahammer time: Armenian prizefighter bout scheduled for March 31

Germany-based former International Boxing Federation middleweight champion Arthur Abraham will return to the ring on March 31 at the Sparkassen-Arena in Kiel, Germany, according to Fightnews.com.

"King Arthur" or "Abrahammer", as the 31-year-old native of Armenia is dubbed, will face an opponent to be named in what is being called a dress rehearsal for a world title fight, the source said.

"My goal is to become world champion again," Abraham (33-3, 27 KOs) is quoted as saying. "That was a first step in the right direction. Only one or two fights, then I will again get a hold of the world title."

In a comeback fight last month Abraham defeated Pablo Farias (19-2, 11 KOs), of Argentina, after three defeats on his four 168-pound division appearances.
