“With the kind of rigorous training I have gone through, I should be able to stop him in the third round. I’m not underrating my opponent or being over confident, but I had perfected the strategy to stop him early after watching some of the tapes of his previous fights,” the Ajegunle-born boxer said.
Chiori, however, admitted that defeating the Finish would not be a walk in park.“Touminen is a tested boxer and a worthy opponent any day and could be very tricky,” he said.Chiori defeated German opponent, Tom Reiche in the fourth round to retain his Junior Middleweight WBF title.
