Boxer Ayitey Powers has hinted he is ready to face rival Braimah Kamoko popularly known as Bukom Banku in a rematch t after securing his first title in three years.
Ayitey Powers secured his first win after seven defeats in a row after he knocked out Bennois opponent Anicet Amossou in the fourth round of their 10-round international light- heavyweight bout and tells JOY Sports he is willing to stage a comeback but only after these conditions are fulfilled .
"Will definitely face off with Bukom Banku again, but the thing is i have two more fights before I agree I tackle Banku, I want to be in great shape before fighting him again, but the thing is we want good promoter who can promote fights we don't want a local promoter who will cheat us" he said
According to the new International light Heavy weight title holder his insistence on a good promoter stems from the fact that he received a rather meagre sum of money after their much publicised May 16 bout with Bukom Banku at the Accra Stadium organised by Box Offices Promotions.
"If I told you how much I got from that fight you will cry for me, the promoter earned 4million Ghana cedis and only gave us 20,000 Ghana cedis each and after my expenses I was left with 5,300 Ghana cedis, which is very bad .I should have left for Australia but still around clearing bout so I can't fight for a selfish promoter to take all the booty "Ayitey added
Ayitey Powers lost in a unanimous decision to Bukom Banku in a non title local grudge bout that attracted almost 20,000 fans at the Accra Stadium on May 16 last year.
