GOtv Boxing Night 32: ‘Baddo Talks Too Much’- ‘Ese’
Ahead of their much-anticipated clash at GOtv Boxing Night on December 26, Hammed ‘Ese’ Ganiyu has labeled Raheem ‘Baddo’ Animashaun a ‘talkative’ who is yet to face a true ring test.
The two rising stars are set to square off in one of six electrifying bouts at the Boxing Jamz edition of GOtv Boxing Night, scheduled to take place at Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos.
Raheem ‘Baddo’ Animashaun, 19, enters the fight with momentum, having clinched the Mojisola Ogunsanya Memorial Trophy and a cash prize of N 1 million as the best boxer at GOtv Boxing Night 31 in May.
Confident in his abilities, Baddo had vowed to punish Ese for daring to challenge him.
Ese, however, dismissed Baddo’s threats, calling him untested and unprepared for what’s to come. ‘I like his confidence and his talk, but he hasn’t faced anyonelike me,’ Ese remarked.
‘He hasn’t lost because he hasn’t been to war. On December 26, he’ll step into the ring and experience punches that will daze him. He’ll finally know what a real fight feels like.’
In addition to the thrilling boxing matchups, the night promises top-notch entertainment with performances by music stars Mayorkun and YKB, alongside comic relief from MC Lively.
Other bouts lined up for the night include a national super welterweight title fight between Lateef ‘Enuoshe’ Azeez and Rasheed ‘Fally Boy’ Adeyemo.
In the other bouts, Akintunde Abolade will square up against Emmanuel Abimbola in the national super flyweight category; Sikiru ‘Omo Iya Eleja’ Shogbesan will battle Imole ‘System’ Oloyede in a national super featherweight challenge.
Taiwo ‘Gentle Boy’ Olowu will confront Jafaru ‘Tanka’ Suleiman in a national super welterweight challenge, while Kehinde Owoeye and Emmanuel Bamidele will face-off in the amateur flyweight category.
