Danish middleweight Fawaz Nasir, a man who has been
plagued with several spells of inactivity in his career, is
hoping to now finally get his career back on track, when he
appears on the next Risum Boxing show in Vejle, Denmark on
September 8. The prospects of a step up in competition on the
Vejle-show is something that excites the good-looking
26-year-old, who doubles as a professional model when he is not
in the gym.
“My
co-managers Henrik Risum and Olaf Schroeder have promised me
that we are going to aim hard at getting me ranked, or at least
steered towards some kind of title fight next year, and I am
very happy about this. I hope to get a good, strong opponent in
this up-coming fight, and then someone even better after that. I
want to move to the next level, but of course I have to prove to
everyone first that I can walk the walk and not just talk the
talk,” says Nasir.
Under the
tutelage of trainer Brian Mathiasen, Nasir is undefeated in 10
fights, but has not been in the ring since he suffered a nasty
cut on Risum Boxing’s inaugral Danish promotion last October,
which resulted in a No Contest. The Vejle show is under the
supervision of the German Federation (BDB) and Fight
Production’s Schroeder doubles as matchmaker.
