Nigerian Light Heavyweight fighter, Ebaro Eradajaye [3, 0, 3ko] has made a damming revelation about a promoter, on whose card he was scheduled to feature this year.
The budding talent was billed to fight on a show and was tipped as the overwhelming favourite to win his fourth bout.
However, the bout was cancelled and rescheduled to mid-January 2022.
But in a rather bizzare turn of events following the postponement, Eradajaye has revealed that the show’s organizer offered him a more significant purse to make the fight last longer.
“The promoter now came and said if I take this fight into third or fourth [round], I might get paid extra. Suspicious. The whole thing is suspicious,” The Nigerian said in an interview, adding that, “I’m [now] fighting again in Jan. This one I was supposed to have was a scam.
“We came all this way, but they had [only] one judge [should have three] and some other BS. I think the next show is on January 16th.”
Meanwhile, Eradajaye was appreciative to end the year on 3-0 as he looks forward to the New Year.
“So far has been one of the best years. Truly Blessed and thankful for everything,” he pointed out.
“Met so many amazing people and learned so many new things. I cannot wait for 2022.
“Appreciate all of you. Thank you for your support. Next year got something special planned.”
The budding prospect also added that he plans to help out local children in Nigeria and won’t forget his roots when he makes it big-time.
“That’s how I started getting into helping some local kids with boxing. It’s a beautiful sport. Honestly, it’s the best thing.
“It helps youth in troubled places so much. It helped me and saved my life.
“For me, it’s more so trying to do something positive with it more than anything. I believe people will come to me by themselves.
“I don’t think about that too much. More so, what I can do to make the world a little bit better. Too much hate here. That would be nice,” he concluded.
