Atlantic City, New Jersey (Augusztus 2, 2017)–-ban 2009, and after winning two in a row, Light Heavyweight contender Badi Ajamu herceg walked away from the ring at age 37.
Ajamu, who was a perennial contender had a record of 27-3-1 a 15 kiütéssel, but decided that he needed some time away from competitive action.

Ajamu, most 45 years-old of Camden, New Jersey has kept in great shape while away from the squared circle.
I have been helping people in the gym the whole time, and I decided that if I am putting time in that, I mind as well get back in there and do this on my own,” - mondta Ajamu.
Ajamu also believes that being in the ring will also help fight for a cause that he has been involved with for sometime.
What better way to bring attention to child abduction, which is a big problem in this country then to be in the ring and help get the message out there.
Ajamu said that at age 45 that this is not a one-and-done situation, as he plans to stick around for specific purposes.
The goal is take this as far as I can. I want to win another title and tie another Camden legend, “JerseyJoe Walcott,” said the former Pennsylvania, IBC Inter-Continental, WBC Continental Americas, WBC Caribbean, , WBO NABO and World Boxing Foundation Light Heavyweight champion.
Another goal is a rematch with legendary Roy Jones, Jr.
Jones defeated Ajamu in 2006, and its’s more than a coincidence that Jones will be in a attendance as a co-promoter for the event.
Yes there is definitely a reason why I am on this card, and Roy is co-promoting, but I have to get past Perez. I know he is a tough fighter who comes forward, and he is capable as I know Lavarn Harvell who was undefeated at the time that he beat him.
I have been in the gym, and have been working on things. You will see a more technical version of me,. Like I said I been in the gym, and now I want to use the energy on something significant.

Webster attributes his most recent success to a more active schedule as this will be his 3rd fight of this year and 5th fight in the last 14 hónap.
The more that I fight, the more consistent that I am. When I had other people in charge of my career, I was fighting less frequent. Maybe fighting every six or seven months. Now I have been more active and that goes hand in hand with my performances. I was getting in the ring to trying shake off ring-rust and now I am going in there not worrying about that.
Webster is not overlooking Harris, but He is looking to close of 2017 fighting higher level of opponents, és a 2018 looking for a big title shot.
My target is WBA champion George Groves. I never wanted to face Harris. I wanted to fight guys with better records and for many reasons including opponents pricing themselves out, but guys won’t fight me. I do appreciate that Harris stepped up for the challenge so I respect him for that. Hopefully I can fight someone like Mike Tiberi next for a major regional title, then have my eye towards a world title in 2018.
