World Boxing Federation (WBF) championship boxing is set to return to the Republic of Georgia on a show in Tbilisi on Saturday May 24.
Nika Bigvava, 6-7-1 (4), takes on Freeman Mabvongwe, 8-5 (5), from Zimbabwe for the vacant WBF International Super Middleweight title.
Bigvava´s record is not flattering, but when you look closer you will see that its very deceiving. The 23-year-old has boxed outside of Georgia nine times, facing local boxers in their country.
He holds a few good wins over undefeated prospects, but most significantly he stopped Dutch and BeNeLux champion Xavier Kohled, 13-1-1 (7), in March of 2024.
Both Bigvava and Mabvongwe are entering their first professional championship fight, and a victory will be something of a breakthrough for whoever gets his hands raised.
