January 15, 2019 12:03 pm

Former Fiji Heavyweight champion Petero Qica will be using the upcoming fight against rookie Isikeli Navuni as a build-up to reclaim his title next month.

The 30-year-old is making a comeback after eight years when he claimed the heavyweight title from Mosese Kavika in 2011.

Qica says he has been braving the weather elements to get prepared for his opponent.

“Boxing Commission has given me a chance to fight again because I still own the title. I won’t say much for this fight but I’ll do the talking in the ring.”

Qica remained undefeated in his past four fights while Navuni will be making his debut.

Qica takes on Navuni in the South Pacific Boxing Promotions on the 9th of next month at Nadi’s Prince Charles Park.
