Ghana’s Emmanuel Tagoe’s world title bout against Argentine opponent, Fernando David Saucedo has been rescheduled to December 2.
The much-anticipated bout was initially scheduled for November 25 at the newly built Bukom boxing arena in Accra.
However, Saucedo’s camp in the early hours of Friday sent a communique asking for a rescheduling of the bout due to a shoulder injury and therefore request for an extra seven days for recovery.
Meanwhile, BabyJet Promotions, who are promoting the bout have apologised to all stakeholders since the postponement have been accepted to accommodate the time for the Argentine to recover fully.
“He has a clause in his contract, and if he is injured and that clause protects him only if he proves with evidence, we have to give him the chance,” promoter Sammy Anim told Starr Sports.
“Since he can only recover and fight on December 2, the excuse has been accepted by BabyJet Promotions, so it’s been rescheduled to December 2”, he added.
