GOtv Boxing: Ucheji will fall again, boasts Osoba

Osoba fight



Super Welterweight boxer, Abdulafeez ‘Big Name’ Osoba says his opponent at GOtv Boxing Night 30, Christopher Ucheji, will fall again, when they faceoff December 26.

Having defeated Ucheji earlier this year, Osoba said the fight, scheduled for the Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos, will end in his favour, like the first encounter.

“We fought in May and I defeated him. It was a unanimous decision, and I will do it again. I am in a better shape than when we met earlier, which means he should expect a tougher match,” he said.

The boxing event will also feature five other fights, including two title bouts. Taiwo ‘Gentle Boy’ Olowu, will clash with Ghanaian Michael Ansah for the West African Boxing Union super welterweight title, while Sifon ‘Best’ Iwatt and Saheed Azeez will slug it out for the national super flyweight title.

Arabambi Ojo and Ibrahim ‘Golden Boy’ Opeyemi also battle in a national bantamweight challenge bout, while Ayanfe Adeoye faces Ahmed Ganiyu in the national light welterweight category. In the female category, national female cruiserweight champion, Bolatito ‘Black Tito’ Oluwole duels with Blessing Abisoye in a national challenge fight.
