“The win will qualify me for a contention for the International Boxing Federation title in Germany later in the year.

“I will so punish Muhammed to please my fans, especially the  revered Oba Ewuare(Oba of Benin) and my champion Governor, Godwin Obaseki.

“I decided to bring the fight to  Benin City my home town as a honour to my  fans and supporters, especially my Oba and the governor.”
