UBO Lightweight Champion Joseph Commey aka Jaguar has invited Samuel Takyi, the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games Bronze medalist to a Showdown with his title at stake.

Speaking to Yours Truly in an exclusive interview, Commey said he is ready and advised Takyi not to fight old boxers like former IBO Lightweight Champion Emmanuel Tagoe and Sheriff Quaye, the WBO Africa Lightweight Champion, but come out for a young blood like him to give the boxing people of Ghana a good memorable boxing show.

"I tell you if he doesn't beat me, he is not getting near the world title because we all want it and the best must face each other to determine who is the best of the best. We are boxers so we should let it happen, the people of Ghana want to see a good show" he said

Commey who won Silver at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, Scotland said they have to fight to earn some income and Box Office Promotions is ever ready to stage.

He has two professional bouts and holds the UBO Continental Africa title.

Samuel Takyi is undefeated in seven professional bouts with the experience of international outings in Nigeria, South Africa and Ghana. He was named SWAG Sports Personality in 2021.

Both achieved and successful pugilists are supported by large crowds winning gold medalists at the 13th African Games held in Accra Ghana representing Ghana in different weight classes.

According to Jaguar, he can fit in Super Featherweight, Lightweight and Super Lightweight. He was voted Best Boxer at the last Boxing Ghana Awards in addition to Prospect of the Year by the UBO.

The fans are so much interested and want it to happen. Let's get ready to rumble.
