Hey, do you think this cat Abelyan believes in himself?

Just came across this interview the other day, it was done just before Scott Harrison fought Wayne McCullough

Abelyan will get Ko'd.

He better believe that.

I think he'll believe in himself having seen harrison exposed by medina. Every fighter has to believe in himself no matter what. the fight is already over if you don't. Trust me.

Well from what I've seen of his record this Abelyan looks a decent fighter.
Sounds like we're in for a decent contest come March.
Scot is up in the Highlands as we speak, poor bloke must be freezing his tits off every morning - I think this Amrenian is going to get smashed.

He's a better mandatory than Calzaghe's (strangely, both of Armenian descent). A southpaw, too. Harrison has never looked that great against southpaws. He couldn't stop the lighter Patrick Mullings, nor the strong but hardly world-beating Smith Odoom. And Liverpool southpaw David Burke beat him in the 1996 Olympic qualifiers.
But, yes, I still see only one winner.

This abelyan apparently doesn't respect any fighter. Barrera, Hamed, Harrison, McCullough, he dismisses them all as jokes.

What the hey, i'll pick the underdog. Abelyan SD.
