Former Zimbabwe National Boxing Control Board boxing board member, Patrick Mkondiwa has warned World Boxing Council welterweight silver champion Charles Manyuchi against complacency when takes on Qudratillo Abduqaxorov in his title defence fight.
Manyuchi arrived in Singapore yesterday for the mega fight at the OCBC Arena.
Abduqaxorov is unbeaten in 10 fights.
"Of course a victory is possible in Singapore though they should not underrate Qudratillo because WBC do not just give anyone a chance to fight (in such fights).
"The fact that he has been given this chance means he is good.
"He is a champion from his region and being a champion Manyuchi should not underrate him because he has conquered in his region. And 10 fights unbeaten that's a very good record.
"I know Charles, he is a good fighter and he should just fight like he did in Russia and win," Mkondiwa is quoted saying.
