“The Ashanti Warrior”, Stanley Nyintakyi, won the vacant UBO Africa Featherweight title when he stopped fellow countryman Isaac Nettey in the third round.

23-year-old Nyantakyi had too much speed and power for his veteran opponent, who tried but was out-gunned in every department.

Nyantakyi, who won the Ghanaian national title in his previous bout, improved his professional record to 10-1 (10). Nettey drops to 28-18-1 (17).

In the co-feature, John “The Monster” Zile copied the feat of his stable-mate when he stopped hard-hitting Isaac Quartey in the fourth round to capture the vacant UBO International Super Bantamweight title.

And again it was a case of Zile (24) being being better on every level, and Quartey wanting to do ore than his body could follow through with at this stage of his career.

Unbeaten Zile takes his professional ledger to 13-0-2 (11), while Quartey falls to 26-13-1 (23).

Both Nyantakyi and Zile are hoping to challenge for UBO world titles in the near future, and their performances in Kumasi showed that they are ready for the next level.
