Mzuzu-based boxer Felix Mwamaso and Juma Jack from Blantyre have a chance of exiting 2017 highly or lowly, as they clash at Obrigado Leisure Centre in Mzuzu today.
\nBaghdad Boxing Promotions has organised the eight-round non-title fight.
\nMwamaso, the super welterweight pugilist, said he would like to end the year 2017 with a win so as to give his fans something to smile about.
\nHe, on the other hand, was cautious of Jack, who he said, has been fighting against experienced boxers.
\nIn his last outing two months ago, Mwamaso defeated Tanzanian Six \u201cMachine\u201d Bruno at the same venue.
\n\u201cEverything is in place on my part. Juma is a good boxer and he has fought against many great boxers such as Chimwemwe Chiotcha and Mussa Ajibu.
\n\u201cBut it is good to finish the year with a good record. This is why I am aiming for nothing short of victory,\u201d Mwamaso said.
\nOh his part, Jack said he was ready to show Mwamaso what he has never seen.
\n\u201cI am told he is good boxer, but by the end of the day, my actions in the ring would separate a man from a boy. I am not sure whether he would last all the rounds,\u201d he said.
\nMeanwhile, Baghdad Boxing Promotions front-runner, Willard Mwamlima, said the bout is a New Year gift to Mzuzu boxing fans.
\n\u201cThe idea of inviting a Blantyre-based boxer was meant to give boxing lovers a classic fight. It is a thank you to Mzuzu boxing fans for their support in 2017.
\n\u201cIt is also an assurance to all people here in the Northern Region,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
