Joseph Kwadjo is brimming with confidence ahead of his boxing bout against an inexperienced Isikeli Senidoko when the duo face-off in a 8×3 cruiserweight contest in may.

The duo will fight in the South Pacific Boxing Promotions program slated for Prince Charles Park in Nadi on 22 May.

The Ghanaian boxer, who will be making his return to the boxing ring after nearly two years is in earnest preparation to face Senidoko.

“I have been preparing very hard for my fight,” he said. “I will give my 100 per cent on fight night so that all the boxing fans who come and watch the event get their money’s worth.”

The Ghanaian-born pugilist is confident of victory.

“I am confident of a good victory and I thank all my fans, sponsors and team.

“I can’t wait to get into the boxing ring once again.”

The 14-day lockdown of Nadi and Lautoka and the subsequent health and hygiene protocols in place has offered Kwadjo a change in his strategies as preparations take a different mode.

“The gyms are closed so I am focusing on my fitness and endurance by engaging in road-runs.”

The 35-year-old offered a word of advice to the general populace.

“Please, listen to the leaders of the country because it is for our own benefit.

“Let’s work together so that we can defeat a common enemy.”

Kwadjo is currently training with Fiji’s flamboyant amateur boxer Winston Hill.

He will be ‘beefing-up’ for the contest since his preferred weight category is the light heavyweight division.
