The whole country has gone World Cup Crazy and everyone is waiting to see if Wayne Rooney will make it to Germany.
Whilst other sports are suffering Boxing Promoter Frank Maloney is smiling and rubbing his hands together as he has unearthed a genuine World class fighter and is amazed that other promoters have not tried to sign this superb talent.
It seems that the English football team rely on Wayne Rooney but boxing produces individual stars and Frank Maloney believes that his latest signing Ajose ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ Olusegun will become such a star.
Ajose, who is managed by Former British Heavyweight Champion James Oyebola made his promotional debut for Maloney Promotions on May 26th at the York Hall in Bethnal Green destroying tough Ukrainian Alexander Abramenko in a matter of seconds.
The older generation of York Hall regulars were reminded of another Nigerian boxer Dick Tiger who took apart Terry Downes in similar style.
The London based Ajose also holds a stoppage victory over current Commonwealth Light Middleweight Champion Bradley Pryce even though he campaigns in the light welterweight division.
Such is Maloney Promotions faith in their new signing that they are willing to offer Ricky Hatton a fight in any weight division he chooses. It is common knowledge that Team Hatton struggle to find suitable opposition for Ricky so Maloney Promotions are willing to relieve Ricky of his titles
This fight could be easily made and it would mean something in America. Ricky, the ball is in your court.
General sports fans remember the World Cup comes around every four years a fighter like Ajose Olusegun comes along but once in a lifetime.
