Fiji’s heavyweight boxing sensation, James “The Beast” Singh, is set to showcase his skills on an international platform as he faces the Australian rising star, Teremoana Jnr, in a heavyweight bout promoted by Matchroom. This highly awaited clash will take place at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, Australia tomorrow.
With this fight marking Singh’s 18th professional appearance, he will battle against an opponent who boasts an impressive six-fight winning streak. In a recent press conference, Singh conveyed his gratitude for the chance to fight at such a prestigious event, emphasizing the unwavering support he receives from fans and family back in Fiji. Although he had only two weeks of preparation time, Singh is determined to give his all in the ring, aiming for a knockout victory.
“I want to take this time to thank God for the opportunity; it’s an honor to fight on this great card, and I appreciate the support from my people back at home,” Singh stated, acknowledging the doubts expressed by critics about his matchup with Teremoana Jnr. Nevertheless, he remains resolved to bring the fight to his opponent, expressing, “I know there are critics who think I’m just a walk in the park for him, but I’m coming to fight.”
Teremoana Jnr, who has a background in winning the heavyweight gold medal at the 2023 Honiara Pacific Games, reciprocated Singh’s respectful gesture, welcoming him to Australia. However, he also asserted the seriousness of the coming bout, alerting Singh to the challenge that awaits him. “If you come to fight me, I will take you out early,” he warned.
This matchup is not only significant for Singh’s career as he aims to establish himself further in the boxing world, but it also serves as an exciting opportunity for boxing fans looking for thrilling entertainment. The main event will highlight George Kambosos Jr. facing Jake Wyllie, adding further allure to the night.
