Unleash the beast
Former WBF welterweight world champion Bethuel 'Tyson' Uushona has hinted at a return to the ring following months of inaction.
Bethuel 'Tyson' Uushona is scheduled to fight in Germany next month, Namibian Sun can exclusively reveal.
The Namibian, who was stripped off his World Boxing Federation (WBF) world title after failing to defend it within the scheduled time, says he is rejuvenated and ready to pounce again.
Namibian Sun is in possession of a fight cut which pits the Namibian against a German boxer.
It reveals that Uushona is scheduled to fight Rico Mueller of Germany on 11 August.
The date of the fight can, however, also change, depending on boxing commission approval.
Uushona was, however, reluctant to confirm that his next fight will be against a German opponent.
“Well, I do not know where you got that information from, but I will not be able to tell you whether Mueller will be the boxer I will be fighting or not.
“All I can say is that I have been doing what I have to do in the gym, in order to remain fit and ready.
“The people must expect a beast of a fighter when I return to the ring,” Uushona said.
He won the WBF world title in 2016 and defended it in 2017, before losing it after failing to fight for a period of over six months.
“You will see me in action very soon, because I have been preparing for something.
“Losing my title in such a manner was not a good thing, but I am working hard for bigger things.
“I do believe that I will be in the ring and abroad in less than 20 days from now,” Uushona said.
The boxer, however, continued to be tight-lipped about where and against who he would be fighting.
Mueller has a record of 23 wins, with two loses and one draw after 26 fights, while Uushona boasts a record of 36 wins, five loses and one draw in his professional career.
Mueller is also a former International Boxing Organisation (IBO) intercontinental world champion.
Uushona was touted as a potential great during the time he was fighting for the MTC Nestor 'Sunshine' Tobias Boxing and Fitness Academy.
The boxer, however, lost an important fight to Argentinian Dario Pucheta in 2014.
This was followed by another two losses, which resulted in Uushona quitting the Tobias stable to join the Salute Boxing Academy.
The 36-year-old still feels there is enough time for him to rejuvenate his career and become a welterweight great.
