Adamu fires Patrick warning

Adamu fires Patrick warning

Isaac Ekpo (L) Super Middle Weight Boxing Champion with his Coach, Seidu Kalifa, in training at the National Stadium In Lagos recently.

Charles Adamu (23-6, 17 KOs) has issued a warning to Danish super middleweight Patrick Nielsen (25-1, 12 KOs) ahead of their WBA International title fight tomorrow at the Ballerup Super Arena in Copenhagen. The experienced Ghanaian ‘Crusader is travelling to the Danish capital full of confidence and has vowed to finish Nielsen in five rounds.

‘’I’m coming to Copenhagen take his title,’’ said the former Commonwealth Champion. ‘’Patrick is a good fighter but I have fought and beaten better men than him. I’m like a lion, I’m fearless and I never give up. He will not be able to last more than five rounds with me!

‘’I will not reveal my game plan but what I will say is that the fans can expect fireworks. It’s going to get too hot for Patrick to handle. After I knock him out, the belt will be coming back to Ghana with me.’’

Unfazed by his opponent’s brash remarks, Nielsen, who claimed the WBA International title with an eighth-round stoppage of George Tahdooahnippah earlier this year, remains focused on the task at hand.

‘’Adamu can talk all the trash he wants,’’ said the 24 year-old southpaw. ‘’It’s not going to help him in the ring. I’ve had a great training camp and I’m ready for whatever he has to offer. If he wants to box we can box, if he wants to brawl we can brawl, either way, the belt is staying in Denmark.’’
