“Big time boxing comes to Lagos!” Okolie said. “This will be a historic moment for Africa, my family and my career. There’s been a lot of talk, but let’s see who really wants to dance. Detty December just got Saucy.”
As you probably can infer from Okolie’s statement, no official opponent has been set for him on this date as of yet. Okolie, 32, is most recently coming off of an easy unanimous decision win over Kevin Lerena over the summer. Adeleye, 28, last lost a decision to Filip Hrgovic in August, which came only a few months after a sixth round stoppage over Jeamie TKV.
Emanuel Odiase, Taiwo Agbaje and Shiloh Thomas have also been named as fighters who will appear on this end of the year card. We’ll provide more information as it becomes available.
