“Abraham is a strong, come forward fighter,” Eubank Jr. сказав, “але він одновимірний. He’s very good in that one dimension, but a one-dimensional fighter cannot beat me. I see a lot of holes in his game and I’m going to exploit those holes ruthlessly.”

Abraham has also defeated world-class opponents such as Мартін Мюррей, Пол Сміт двічі, Лахуана Simon, Edison Miranda двічі, Khoren Gevor, Sebastian Demers, Kofi Jantuah, Kingsley Ikeke, Robin Krasniqi і Howard Eastman.
Four of Abraham’s five career losses have been to world champions Карл Фроч, Андре Уорд, Stieglitz and Гілберто Рамірес. Stieglitz is the only opponent to stop Abraham, хто виграв 10 з його останніх 11 бої, the most recent a 12-round unanimous decision win over Krasniqi (46-4, 17 КО) this past April in Germany.
“I will make sure that I’m in top shape and ready to secure a great victory,” Abraham remarked. “I know Chris Eubank, Молодший. хороший боєць, like his dad. I’m expecting a tough fight, but I am confident I will beat him.”
