“My target is to win that title belt, there’s nothing more to it. We are both here for the win and there will be nothing and no-one stopping me.”

He says it was not easy switching weight categories, but has been preparing for three months and will not be making any excuses.

“It was a challenging switching weight categories, it required my undivided attention and hard work, and it really makes me happy to see that I have progressed well.”
