Siyakhohlwa Kuse kämpft um den WBC-Titel im Strohgewicht

Der Südafrikaner Siyakhohlwa Kuse fordert am Samstag in Kempton Park Melvin Jerusalem um den WBC-Titel im Strohgewicht heraus.

Der Kampf unter dem Motto „One way to redemption“ findet im Emperors Palace statt. Kuse unterlag dem philippinischen Champion letztes Jahr auf den Philippinen einstimmig nach Punkten. Kuse erklärte, er sei bereit für 12 Runden. Er fügte hinzu, dass ein K.o.-Sieg ein Bonus wäre und er seit dem ersten Kampf an Erfahrung gewonnen habe. Trainer Manny Fernandes zeigte sich zuversichtlich für seinen Schützling. Er merkte an, dass Kuse sich verbessert habe und den Titel gewinnen werde. Jerusalem hält den WBC-Gürtel seit März 2024 und hat ihn bereits viermal verteidigt. Zuvor gewann er 2023 den WBO-Titel im Strohgewicht.
