Osgood camps in BT for Chazama fight
National Junior Welterweight champion Osgood Kayuni has temporarily relocated to his old base Blantyre to camp for his non-title bout against fellow Malawi Defence Force (MDF) soldier Salimu Chazama.
The fight is scheduled for this Saturday at Lilongwe Community Centre ground and has been organised by New Dawn Boxing Promotions.
“I need to use the best facilities to prepare for the fight and Blantyre has some good gyms where I can condition myself better. I will teach this kid a lesson, “ said Kayuni, adding that his best sparring partners are in Blantyre.
New Dawn director Michael Chimaliza is promising boxing fans a great fight.
“I encourage boxing fans not to miss this fight. These are top boxers and it will be a highly entertaining fight. Fans should bring their families to watch one of the greatest fights this year, “ he said.
Chazama insists that he is unperturbed by his opponent change of base.
“It doesn’t matter to me where he camps I will still beat him. I am just good and in great shape than ever before, “ he said.
If Chazama wins it will be one of the greatest boxing upsets as Kayuni is considered one of the country’s top boxers. n
