British boxer, Prince Patel, and Julius Kisarawe of Tanzania have promised fireworks in Saturday’s super flyweight championship for the WBO Global, WBO Africa, WBA Intercontinental and IBF Continental Commonwealth titles at the Cahaya Lounge at East Legon in Accra.

Patel is confident of an emphatic victory over Kisarawe, with the hope of breaking into the division after a vital win.

Patel sure of victory

Speaking at a press conference to announce the fight last Tuesday, the British fighter said he was ready to make his second attempt at the belts count on March 27 against Kisarawe.

“I am glad to have this opportunity to showcase my talent in Africa and I am confident of victory.

“Kisarawe is one of the best flyweights in Africa and it will be an interesting fight. I can only promise you of a resounding win,” Patel assured.

The two boxers are in Ghana to headline a bill dubbed ‘Night of Championship,’ which is being put together by Soaq Empire Promotions.

Kisarawe eyes an upset

However, Kisarawe is also ready to offer Patel a stiff opposition by putting up a splendid performance on Saturday.

He explained that a win over Patel would help him make a strong statement in the division and was therefore confident of ensuring that.

“I will give Patel a good fight because I need to return to Tanzania with the titles. It is very important for me and I promise to win.

“Winning all these belts will help me make a big statement for myself and the entire Tanzanian boxing community,” said Kisarawe.
