I need victory very much now: Abraham on upcoming clash with Krasniqi

Former WBO world boxing champion Arthur Abraham doesn’t underestimate his opponent and finds him to be a strong and exible athlete. Abraham talked about his upcoming fight in an interview with “Armenpress”.

Arthur, how do you train and in what condition are you?

I can already say that I’m in a good shape, I’ve been training for a long time now in the spa city on Kinbaum, 400km from Berlin, I’m sparring with fighters who resemble the style of Robin Krasniqi.

What does Coach Ulli Wegner think about your shape?

I think he isn’t unhappy. If he’s unhappy, he definitely tells me about it.

What will you say about your opponent?

I never underestimate my opponents. In my opinion he is a strong and exible athlete. The fight for the WBO Intercontinental title will be held on April 22, the winner will later fight Ramirez.

Your age difference is around 10 years, will it be an obstacle?

No, why should it? I will do everything to win. I need victory very much now.

37 year old Abraham is set to fight 29 year old Robin Krasniqi on April 22 in Erfurt, Germany
