After
several postponements due to Covid restrictions,
he is now scheduled to fight former IBF and WBC
regional titlist Komsan Polsan (40-12-1, 26 KOs)
from Thailand for the vacant UBO World
Middleweight title on March 29, on home soil in
Johore, Malaysia.
The date
is only as certain as it can be in the world we
currently live in, but Hafidz has stayed
disciplined and focused since long before
Christmas, training for the fight, working on
his craft, even when new restrictions forced one
delay after another.
“Training
has been good, and I have just pushed on and
followed the programs”, explains Hafidz. “I
really respect my opponent, who is very
experienced and tough, but I am going to win
this fight.”

Hafidz, who
is a former WBC and WBA Asian Champion, and won
the UBO Inter-Continental title last October in
Indonesia, is excited to be returning to his
native Malaysia for what is the biggest fight of
his career so far, after three straight outings
abroad.
“It
really means a lot to have this fight in my home
country, to create history in Malaysian pro
boxing, and it will without a doubt be the best
achievement for me to become UBO World Champion”,
said the 33-year-old Southpaw.
The fight
will headline a show promoted by AGH Promotions,
which will also feature the return of former UBO
Inter-Continental and Asia-Pacific Light
Heavyweight Champion Muhammad Meeraj.
