2018 is shaping up to be an important year in the budding boxing career of undefeated Detroit-based bantamweight Ja’Rico “The Great Lakes King” О'Куин.
“I’m looking to make my TV debut this year,” Said О'Куин, finishing up training for Пятницы борьба. “Оттуда, Небо это предел. When I get on TV, I’m going to looks so good I’ll become an attraction that people want to see again and again.”
В эту пятницу, Февраль 23, on a show called “WAR IN WARREN,” at DeCarlo’s Banquet and Convention Center in Warren, Мичиган, О'Куин (7-0-1, 5 КО) will kick off the year by facing Kenyan veteran Nick “Каньянколе” Отиено (31-12, 13 КО) in a six-round showcase.
“Обучение шло хорошо,” он продолжил. “I’m putting the finishing touches on camp and making sure my weight is good. I know Otieno is a tough veteran who’s not coming to lay down. He’ll put up a good fight and I’m pretty sure he’s got some veteran tactics he’ll try to use in there. I’ll use my youth and skills to come out on top.”
A former number-one ranked national amateur champion, O’Quinn turned professional in 2015 and soon signed with the ever-growing promotional stable of Dmitriy Salita. Flashy and quick-fisted with good power, O’Quinn’s popularity with hometown fans seems to grow with every impressive performance.
“It’s a great feeling. I get a lot of love in Detroit. They chant my name. The crowd loves it. If you can make it out of Detroit, you can make it out of anywhere.”
O’Quinn says he won’t predict what will specifically happen against Otieno, only that he will continue to build his name.
“Если он пройдет расстояние, I see myself being dominant and showcasing my talents and skills for all six rounds. If it doesn’t go the distance, I’ll show them what I can do for a while and then get him out of there.”
