“Uste dut Toka adierazpen handi bat egin eta, beraz, Top Rank egin (Kahn-Clary sustatzailea),” Manfredo added. “They’re so high on him that they want to put him in a big fight. I told them to give us a 10-round fight first, agian, urtarrilean edo otsailean, and then we can talk about him fighting a top guy. There’s no rush; Zuen bakarrik 23.
“Toka’s really maturing. He still doesn’t have ‘man strength’ but he’s getting there. He always works hard. He spars hard with bigger guys. He doesn’t just beat up a sparring partner, gora jotzen zuen gimnasioan, three or four fighters a session. And most of the time he’s sparring bigger guys and using big gloves.”
Liberian jaio, the 23-year-old Kahn-Clary is a rising star with lofty expectations. “To goiko mailan lehiatu nahi dut,” he explained. “Datorren urtean, I will keep working hard and hopefully fight some decent named opponents.
