The victory marks a significant milestone in Agbaje’s career as he claims the continental title in the lightweight division.

Agbaje, an undefeated Nigerian lightweight, had engaged in tense verbal exchanges with Osaigbovo ahead of the bout, setting the tone for a highly anticipated showdown.

The 10-round contest featured two unbeaten fighters, with Agbaje entering with an 18-0 record and 13 knockouts, while Osaigbovo also came in undefeated with 12 wins and eight knockouts.

Ahead of the fight, Agbaje had vowed to “expose” his opponent, dismissing him as “just a boxer,” while Osaigbovo insisted victory was “1000 per cent sure,” adding further intrigue to the contest.
