The number three Nigerian ranked contender for the Lightweight title in Nigeria, Suleiman Afeez, was knocked out by Alaba Omotola at the Alake Sports Complex, Abeokuta at the weekend.
The bout which was ended in the 5th round after Alaba scored a technical knockout ensures that ‘Elibow’ becomes the favorite and number one contender for the Nigerian title even as he promised to win this bout beforehand.
“I kept my promise to my fans that I will beat Suleiman Afeez who is a good boxer but I am a better boxer and I proved it that night,” Omotola Golda Sports247.
The fighter is expected to make a return appearance on GOTV fight night as soon as Jacboxer Promotions get him another fight with the boxer ready to be received by the ministry for youths and sports in Akure today, 5th July.
“I cannot wait to get back on GoTV and do what I do best and that is boxing. The job and profession I choose to take up. I am happy with the results, two knockouts this year 2022,” Omotola said.
