..... again after latest win*

Chicago based Middleweight championship aspirant, Osumanu Adama once again empasised his case for a crack at any of the top titles after outpointing American Doel Carrasquillo courtesy a round 7 stoppage in a scheduled eight rounder last Friday night at Cicero Stadium, Cicero, Illinois, USA.


Adama, now 22-3, 16 knockouts, Joliet, Illinois by way of Accra, Ghana, was fighting for only the second time since his unsuccessful bid in his first world title opportunity against IBF Middleweight champ, Daniel Geale, losing a close 12 round decision in Tasmania, Australia, on March 7, 2012.


Only last March 16 did he fight since the failed world title bid a year earlier but after taking to the ring again within four months, Adama says he is in the groove again and will work hard to get a shot at the world title yet again.

It’s a good shot in the arm of the experienced Adama who also recently was awarded the SWAG professional Boxer of the year gong.


“Thanks be to Allah for the victory. I’m trying to fight 3 more fights and I could be back up the rankings again. It’s hard work all the way,” Adama said.
