Joseph Laryea and Issa Joseph Laryea and Issa

Former WBO inter-continental super featherweight champion Joseph Laryea will face Tanzania’s Issa Nampepeche alias Peche Boy in an eight-round, non-title fight on February 6th.

Laryea has under his belt 42-fights with 19-wins, lost 9 and an enviable 14 technical Knockouts whilst Tanzanian Nampepeche goes into the bout with a record of 27 fights, 20 wins, 3 losses and 4 draws.

The Detroit based Laryea will be staging a return to the ring for the first time since his unanimous win over fellow countryman Yaw Sakiya in 2015 at the Lebanon Club House in Accra.

Laryea is determined to regain prominence on the national scale but will have to deal with an equally hungry, 21 year-old warrior from East Africa.
The card is scheduled to take place at the Cedar Court Hotel in Bradford, United Kingdom.
