Since Hamill is deaf, it’s difficult to understand what he’s saying without the assistance of subtitles. That being said, what I can glean from this interview is that Hamill is intensely motivated, cognizant of the specific challenges, confident in his abilities, respectful of Franklin and aware of what’s at stake. None of that necessarily implies he’ll be able to effectively avoid Franklin’s left straight, but Hamill is a very live underdog in this fight.
