Speaking about pugilist Usman Wazir, he said that Wazir had been training hard for the event and would try to live up to his fans’ expectations. “During the COVID-19 lockdown period, he has tried his best to maintain his fitness levels and I’m sure he’ll win the title bout,” he said.

“Being a pro, every athlete has to keep himself fully fit. As gyms were closed in Islamabad due to the COVID-19 outbreak, Usman had moved to Gilgit where had been training at Gilgit-Baltistan Scouts’ gym. Usman will come to Islamabad on September 15,” he said.

Usman has the chance to become number one in IBF Asian Boxing Federation rankings in the super-light category if he manages to win the title.
