Boxing Daily Report from the Vartughian Promotions promoted show at Ike Abayomi Gym, Ife,  taking place on 29/06/2041:

Looking to impress the boxing fans in attendance, the two fighters competing in this 10 round matchup are James Uti (3 - 16 - 2) who hails from Ife, Nigeria and Sam Ekpukhon(9 - 14(1) - 9) from Osogbo, Nigeria.  Both Uti and Ekpukhon weighed in at 126 pounds.  
The referee tonight is Haider Zahra, and the three ringside judges are Izunna Adamu, Mfon Nemine and Mudashiru Ebor.
