Halloween Thrilla: Joseph King Kong Agbeko vs Yonnhy Perez

Halloween night at Treasure Island Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, can Yonnhy Perez realize his dream of becoming a world champion? He has that chance on Saturday when he challenges Joseph King Kong Agbeko for the IBF bantamweight title.

Showtime will screen the 12-round bout, and promises to be a thrilling firefight. Champion, Joseph Agbeko said “This could be the fight of the year.” Earlier this year team Perez took a gamble by going to South Africa to fight Silence Mabuza in an IBF title eliminator. Perez was behind on all the judges’ scorecards when he produced a spectacular knockout in the final frame of the fight.

“I expect the best out of Agbeko. I know he’s a great champion and he’ll come prepared. I hope he comes 100 percent so we can give the fans the very best,” said Perez. He added “It’s an honor and a huge responsibility fighting for my fans in Colombia.” The 29-year old Agbeko took the title from Luis Alberto Perez in September of 2007 to capture the IBF bantamweight crown and has no plans of relinquishing it.
