It means a lot to me.”

Having his first fight with Filipino’s Juanito Rubillar after his last bout in December 2013 with Guillermo Rigondeax; the fight which was scheduled for May 16, 2015, was postponed to May 30, 2015 due to a change of venue from Southwest University Event Center to El Paso County Coliseum, Texas.

In an interview with AmaLarbieAfrica.com, Agbeko said, “I have been in the gym for quite some time now, undergoing training at Floyd Mayweather's gym in Las Vegas with Floyd’s uncle, Roger Mayweather and I have learnt from him.”

Adding, “I am working very hard for my comeback. So I am very well prepared for this fight.”

According to King Kong, “although every fighter is a threat; it’s boxing, it’s about win, lose or draw and Rubillar has fought more than I have and is very experienced; I am very well-prepared and I assure Ghanaians and fans worldwide nothing but victory at the end of this fight. It really means a lot to me.”
