How can any boxer be so friggin confident/relaxed before a fight like Abraham?

[BattlingNelson]

Good stuff.

Dirrell looks drained doesn't he? And AA coming in **** on.

Direll much more relaxed than before the froch fight. Good to see.

Sidenote: Who's the idiot shouting like a moron at around the 3.10 mark???

Dirrell's brother is too damn loud. Someone should smack him in the head with a water bottle.

I don't think he really knows what to make of the situation. I would equate it to the scene in Rocky where Apollo is coming into the ring against Drago with the elaborate theatrics and taunting and the Russian looks at his trainer and shrugs his shoulders.

The media workout was held in a run down area in a shoddy storefront gym and the weigh in was filled with a large Pro-Dirrell contingent telling him he is a dead man walking. I'm sure he just wants to get to the fight, get it over with, and get back to Germany.

LOL he was screaming at the top of his lungs for a long ass time. Look forward to the fight, gotta try to get out of these family plans so I can catch it at the Joe.

Dirrell is not drained, he is just in the best shape of his life. He said he was on his weight already on Wednesday and was looking forward to eating something good that evening.

He said he'd come into the ring no more than 172.

Abraham is going to be 183 lbs come fight night.

I guess it's an advantage for Abraham to not really understand and speak English - btw, he's always laid back...
