“If you are a boxer, you are a boxer for life. Boxing taught me that I am really disciplined; I got a dedication for the sport and I never give up.

 

 

 

Mikaelian is a former WBO Youth champion and WBO International Cruiserweight Champion, but his biggest test to date is only days away.

 

 

 

“The quarter-final against Briedisit is going to be a tough fight. He is the favorite, he is a really good fighter. He has a good school, the Soviet school, punching իշխանությունը. He is also a thinker in the ring, but I think I am the smarter one.

 

 

 

“I will do what is necessary to win. I fight after the model; hit and not get hit. That is boxing to me and how boxing should be.”

 

 

 

I’ve been giving a second chance,” said Briedis (24-1, 18 Նոկաուտով) one of the stars of Season I of the World Boxing Super Series.
