Darrius Flowers admits that he’s “a little dry” when it comes to interviews this close to a fight. It’s January 17, he’s far from home and his kids in Iowa, and he’s in the middle of a weight cut from welterweight to lightweight for his Saturday bout against Michael Johnson, the most notable name on his record to date.
That’s a lot to have on your plate, so “dry” is understandable. But the 29-year-old is also a pro, so he’s going to take some questions and give his insight on a pivotal moment in a career that began in 2017.
