Everything is ready for a boxing spectacle on the biggest possible stage - Montenegrin boxer Dilan Prašović is fighting for the world title tonight at the Tottenham stadium in London against the local fighter and champion Lawrence Okoli.
At stake is the belt in the WBO Federation Cruiserweight.
Our fighter is a great optimist, he is aware that he is facing the biggest challenge in his career, even though he has a hellishly difficult task ahead of him against the new star of British boxing, a guy who won 13 out of 16 fights by knockout, and who will have the support of as many as 60 fans at one one of the most beautiful and modern football facilities in the world...
"For me, this is a great chance. No one can stop me from achieving my dream and winning the world championship belt. After all, I will say everything during the fight. Okoli is a great fighter, a great puncher, but I believe in myself. And he is a man like me - I know that I am ready to beat him", said Prašović.
Okoli knows what is expected of him, and of himself - the most.
"I never take my eyes off my opponent, I try to block and hit. The last matches I decided by knockout. I've also watched Dylan, his fights - he's a good boxer and he's hungry for success. He's fast and has a great shot, but anyone who thinks that at the end of the day I'm going to let someone beat me in my city and in front of 60 of my fans is wrong. On the contrary, I want a knockout, a powerful knockout," Okoli pointed out confidently.
The fight between Prašović and Okoli is the prelude to the climax of the glamorous evening and the duel between Antonio Joshua and Aleksandar Usik for the title of world champion in four heavyweight federations. Prašović should enter the ring around 21:XNUMX p.m.
