Joshua Clottey tips Banku to defeat Powers

Joshua Clottey is eager to return to Accra in time after his fight with Mundine to watch the much anticipated April 18 bout between Brimah Kamoko alias Bukom Banku and Ayittey Powers.

The ‘Hitter’ as he is popularly referred to has tipped Bukom Banku to defeat Ayittey Powers if the undefeated boxer resorts to serious training.

“If Bukom Banku really trains for this fight, I believe and I am sure that he is going to win this fight because I know him (Bukom Banku) is the stronger of the two. But, Ayittey Powers, whom we are talking about, must not be underrated by Bukom Banku. He must train well and I am sure he will win,” Clottey added.

Clottey, who secured wins over Dashon Johnson and Calvin Greene in his last two bouts, will be seeking his 38th career victory and his third successive triumph over Mundine since his memorable loss to Manny Pacquaio.
