MALTA: Pakistan’s star boxer Muhammad Waseem is set to face Georgia’s Jana Memisishi of Georgia in a ranking fight here tonight.
The fight, approved by the World Boxing Federation (WBF), will take place at 10:30 PM local Malta time (10:00 PM PST).
Muhammad Waseem, the two-time WBC Silver World Champion, has urged Pakistanis to pray for his success, expressing his determination to secure a victory for the nation.
“I request all Pakistanis to pray for me so that I can win this fight for Pakistan and make my country proud,” Waseem stated ahead of the bout.
The fight will see both boxers vying for an important spot in the global rankings. Earlier today, both Waseem and Jana Memisishi weighed in successfully, meeting the required limits for their respective weight classes.
For the unversed, Waseem topped the WBA boxing ranking in the Flyweight category in December 2021, becoming the first-ever Pakistani boxer to achieve this feat.
