Current WBO Africa Lightweight champion Paulus ‘The Hitman’ Moses has warned his Tanzanian opponent, Cosmos Cheka, that he will knock him out.

Moses told Cheka, who has fought in Namibia before against Albinus ‘Danny Boy’ Felesianu, that he should forget about Danny Boy because he is now facing Hitman.

“I was born fit so you should forget about Danny Boy and think about me because you are going to fight me,” he said, adding that come Saturday the former world champion is going to shine.

“I have shone before so I am going to do the same on Saturday night. I am going to knock this guy out, there is no way I am not going to do that,” he boasted.

Cheka who referred to Moses as “the old man”, said he was pleased to return to Namibia and ready to send the former world champion into retirement.

He said winning outside his home country is normal to him and that is what he is going to do to take the title with him.

“I am here to win and gain the support of the fans because if you do not believe me, I am going to take the title to Tanzania,” he said.

Moses holds a record of 41 fights, 37 wins, one loss and one no contest, while Cheka has a record of 27 fights, 17 wins, five losses and five draws.

Promoter Nestor Tobias of the Nestor Sunshine Boxing and Fitness Academy expressed excitement about the Champions in Action Part 7 boxing bonanza.

Tobias said he has no doubt that it is going to be an entertaining night.

“If we can get more resources then we can produce more champions but with what we have we will continue to produce champions,” he assured the nation.

The boxing bonanza will take place at the Windhoek Country Club Resort and Casino, starting at 19:00 on Saturday.
