Tasif Khan sends message to Ghana's Ekow Wilson after 7th round stop

Britain’s Tasif Khan says he was determined to crush out Ghana’s Ekow Wilson following the latter’s pre-fight comments he made.

When the fight was announced, Wilson granted an interview with Sportscrusader.com and he promised to stop Khan.

However, last Sunday in U.K, Khan reigned supreme over the Ghanaian -stopping the Bukom native in round seven in their scheduled bantamweight contest billed for 10 rounds.

“Ekow Wilson is a dangerous fighter with a very good record and high percentage knock out ratio; out of his sixteen wins, fourteen came by way of Knockout.

“Ekow did a lot of talking in the build up to this fight, claiming he has wanted this fight for a long time, but my team had refused because we were scared, that was utter nonsense.

“I didn’t respond as I wanted to let my performance in the ring do the talking for me, I respect all my opponents and all who get into the ring to fight and to a certain extent my team and I did respect his power and trained accordingly.

“This fight wasn’t about titles and belts this time, it was about pride and setting the record straight, as well as making Ekow show me the respect I deserve as a fighter, we believe we did just that.


“I believe at points I could have made it easier for myself and stuck to my boxing skills, but as we both promised fireworks there was no doubt at some point that’s exactly what the fans were going to get.”
