“I want to fight Duke Micah, that is my immediate target. He is the Commonwealth bantamweight champion and I want to take him down,” Ramabeletsa exclusively told Pulse.com.gh from his base in South Africa.

“Micah is a good boxer, no doubt about that, but I have what it takes to beat him, I watched his fight against Matthew Chanda and I saw certain mistakes he did in the ring and I will use that to my advantage when he accept to fight me,” he added.

The Soweto native added: “Ghana can boost of great boxers, so sometimes it is good to fight Ghanaian boxers because they are very strong. But I want Micah’s camp to accept my call so that we can rumble,” he concluded.
