Malawian said he respects Class\u2019 good record in the game with experience in the ring, but that won\u2019t help him from ending his unbeaten record.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI will dismantle Class in front of his fans, that is undisputed, I didn\u2019t come to Tanzania for a holiday, I am here to fight and win. I have fought hard to reach this level and now I am among the best international boxers,\u201d said Mwale.<\/p>\n<p>On his part, Class said it would not be possible for him to lose at the home ground and asked all Tanzanian to flock at the venue to give him support.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have trained hard and I am sure to win at a home venue. I won\u2019t let down Tanzanians, please give me support by coming at the venue,\u201d said Class.<\/p>\n<p>The boxers\u2019 fight will be witnessed by Kubrat Pulev, a boxer who lost against Anthony Joshua in the WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO championship belts. Kubrat has been accompanied by his younger brother, Tervel who will fight against Vikapita Merero of Namibia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have come to fight and win, in our family we do not have a big or small fight, that\u2019s why my younger brother has never been beaten, and apart from Anthony Joshua, I have never lost a fight, so we are going to continue that history on Tanzanian soil,\u201d said Kubrat.<\/p>\n<p>The chief executive officer of the Jackson Group Sports Agency, who has organised the fight, Kelvin Twissa said all preparations for the fight are complete and everything is in place.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPreparations are complete, and this will be the first time in the history to see senior boxers from different countries coming to fight here.
