It was a hot summer evening in Belfast when Caoimhin Agyarko stepped into the ring, his focus laser-sharp as he prepared to take on the best in the business. On July 25, that same focus will be tested as he faces the IBF light-middleweight champion Josh Kelly for the title in Saudi Arabia.

The stakes are high, and so are the expectations. Kelly, 28, has been on a tear too, with six consecutive victories, including a win over Ray Serrano in 2020.

Now, he’s on the cusp of achieving his dream, and he’s not taking anything for granted. ‘I’ve worked too hard to get to this point,’ he says, his voice steady and focused. ‘I’m ready for whatever Kelly throws at me.’

Agyarko’s training camp has been intense, with a team of experts helping him fine-tune his skills. He’s been working on his footwork, trying to anticipate Kelly’s moves, and studying the champion’s tactics. It’s clear he’s in it to win.

The stage is set for a thrilling showdown on July 25. Kelly, the champion, will look to defend his title against Agyarko, the challenger. Who will come out on top? The world will be watching as these two boxers put it all on the line in the sweltering heat of Saudi Arabia.
