Kenyan Olympian Rayton Okwiri says he will take his opponent ‘to the school of boxing’ this Friday where he will fight Emmany Kalombo in Johannesburg for the International Boxing Federation junior middleweight title.
Okwiri says he is confident in facing Kalombo from the Democratic Republic of Congo after spending last year in the USA with stars like Demetrius Andrade training.
Kalombo on his part has also vowed to chop and put Okwiri to sleep
Kalombo was last in action in April, defeating Malawian Chikondi Makawa via third-round technical knockout in Soweto, while the unbeaten Okwiri in his last fight in October 2021, knocked out John Serunjogu of Uganda in a middleweight non-title fight in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
The former African Boxing Union middleweight title holder is determined to put a major belt around his waist once again.
