However, on Saturday October 21, 2017, Bukom Banku and Samir Bastie will have the chance to settle the debate on who the better boxer is.

The pair will face-off at the Bukom Boxing Arena in Accra, with a sizable crowd anticipated to show up for the bout.

Ahead of the fight, both boxers have been engulfed in a war of words. Bukom Banku in an interview with Starr Sports described his opponent as a “coconut seller” who cannot match him.

In a sharp riposte, Samir Bastie also referred to Bukom Banku as a “comedian” who should not see himself as a boxing champion.
