The 31-year-old will take on undefeated WBA Super-Middleweight Champion Andre Ward at The Home Depot Center, is currently shaping up on Usedom, a small German island in the Baltic Sea. Last week, Showtime’s Fight Camp 360 crew caught up with the former tournament point leader in his training camp.
“I am looking forward to returning to America and clinch a big victory on May 14,” Abraham said. “Los Angeles has a huge Armenian community and I intend to put on a great fight for my loyal fans. Their passionate support really means a lot to me. It will give me additional motivation. Ward is a strong fighter but with the help of my countrymen I will defeat him.”
