I have to knock him out in the 5th round – Lawson on Prescott

Ghanaian boxer, Fredrick Lawson has targeted stopping his Columbian opponent, Breidis Prescott, in the 5th round when the two boxers slug it out in a special edition of the ESPN Famous Friday Night Fight in the USA.

Okunka, who has been training feverishly in the United States of America after his emphatic win against Raymond Narh last year, is optimistic of making a huge statement when he mounts the stage against the Columbian boxer.

Chicago-based Lawson, has already flown to the Big Bear in California, where he has resumed training under the guidance of Abel Sanchez, Gennady Golovkin.

Speaking exclusively to sportscrusader.com from his base in Chicago, Okunka says his plan is to make a mark in the USA.

“I want to make history and before I can do that, I have to knock him out in the 5th round.”

“My team and I are training very well and we will make sure that everything go as planned for us in the ring.”
