Amir Khan’s December 19 Lagos card just got even wilder and fans are buzzing about what’s being lined up.
Dillian Whyte has officially been offered a headline clash with former WBO cruiserweight champion Lawrence Okolie. If this one gets confirmed, Lagos is getting a true heavyweight grudge night.
David Adeleye returns to Nigeria for a big homecoming fight against German powerhouse Patrick Korte a veteran with 19 KOs and dangerous early-round power.
Adeleye (14-2, 13 KOs) looks to bounce back strong after his loss to Filip Hrgovic, while Korte brings 10 years of experience and a fresh first-round TKO on his record. Expect a serious shootout: 32 combined knockouts between them.
Harley Benn brother of Conor Benn is back after a long break, relaunching his career against Ghana’s Elvis “Soldier” Ahorgah, a heavy-handed contender with 13 stoppages and rounds under his belt with Callum Simpson and Tyler Denny. A real test.
The card is loaded with African and regional talent too, with names like Agbaje, Odiase, Adeleye, Defreitas and more looking to steal the show.
Amir Khan, Balmoral Group Promotions & Queensberry are building a platform for African boxing to shine and December 19 is shaping up to be a landmark night.
