BANGKOK, Kingdom of Thailand — Pakistan’s Unbeaten “Wonder Boy” Usman Wazeer (8-0, 5 KO’s), the young warrior hailed as Pakistan’s top Pound-4-Pound boxer, as well as the most popular one since Amir Khan with a large exciting fan-base in the Islamic Republic, is more than ready to wage war for the vacant WBO Youth 147lbs World Title in the coming Highland Boxing Show set for September 28 at the luxurious SpacePlus, RCA Plaza, here in “The City of Angels,” Bangkok, Kingdom of Thailand.
The 22-year-old Usman Wazeer (8-0, 5 KO’s), born in the banks if the mighty Astore River in Northern Pakistan, will fly to Thailand to battle tough, glory-hungry Thai warrior Somphot Seesa, 23, for the World’s WBO Youth strap, a war that could get the movie-star-looking Usman Wazeer into the WBO’s welterweight world ranking.
That’s an awesome opportunity that could open golden doors.
However, the fight might not be easy mission for any of two young boxers wanting to make their mark in the sport of Ali, Marciano and Duran.
So who will emerge victorious; and how will that win be?
Already the Asian Welterweight Champion for the WBA (after his KO win over hard-hitting Phatiphan Krungklang last June in Gilgit), Usman Wazeer has stopped training, aiming at winning so much more, a coveted diadem: the WBO world’s youth world title.
Will he win it?
But throwing heavy-artillery at him will be fearless Somphot Seesa, a disciplined, strong, well-trained young fighter, with a fantastic team behind him, and ambitions and goals of his own.
Formerly a Muay Thai combatant, Somphot Seesa, born in the “gold basin” of Ang Thong in Central Thailand, awaits for battle night here in Bangkok, wanting to corner the visiting Pakistani fighter into a big storm of leather. Will that happen?
After the fog vanishes, who will claim victory, becoming “The New” WBO Youth Welterweight World Champion, as well as new World-Ranked Welterweight?
