Emmanuel ‘Ability’ Abimbola aims to defend title and win big at GOtv Boxing Night 31
Emmanuel ‘Ability’ Abimbola is not just aiming to prove why he is the best pound-for-pound fighter in the game right now, but he also has his eyes set on the prestigious Mojisola Memorial Ogunsanya trophy and the N1 million cash prize for the best boxer at the upcoming GOtv Boxing Night 31.
The highly anticipated event is set to take place at the Molade Okoya-Thomas Indoor Sports Hall of Teslim Balogun Stadium in Lagos on May 1. Abimbola will be facing off against Azeez Ayobami in what is expected to be a thrilling showdown among the seven bouts scheduled for the night.
Having clinched the title and prize money at GOtv Boxing Night 28 last year by defeating Prince ‘Lion’ Nwoye, Abimbola is determined to make it a memorable anniversary by securing another victory on the same date and at the same venue. The lightweight champion expressed his confidence, stating, “I have the ‘Ability’ to make it happen again; Azeez cannot stop me.”
In addition to Abimbola’s fight, fans can look forward to other exciting matchups, including Adeyemi ‘Spirit’ Adekanla taking on Segun ‘War’ Adeyemi for the West African Boxing Union (WABU) light welterweight title, and Hammed ‘Ese’ Ganiyu facing off against Yusuf Ogunbumi in a light welterweight national challenge fight.
The event will also feature clashes in the national welterweight, flyweight, super welterweight, and catchweight categories, promising a night filled with adrenaline-pumping action and fierce competition. Boxing enthusiasts are gearing up for an unforgettable evening of sports entertainment at GOtv Boxing Night 31.
