Bekman Soilybayev (19-1, 10 KOs) will take on Abeid Zugo (15-0, 13 KOs) for the vacant Universal Boxing Organization™ (UBO) world Super Featherweight title on February 23 in Aktau, Kazakhstan.

 
 

The mouthwatering and potentially explosive match-up will headline a show promoted by Tunal Academy in association with Adal Promotions.


Soilybayev, fighting out of Almaty, turned professional in 2014, and has won NABA, WBC and WBA regional titles on his way to what will be his first crack at world honours.


In his most recent bout, last December, he proved he is ready for the next step when he stopped unbeaten Abdulazizbek Najmiddinov (10-0, 8 KOs) from Uzbekistan in two rounds.


 
 

Abeid Zugo, from Tanzania, has paved the way for what will be his biggest fight to date by defeating two former world champions.

In December of 2023 he out-scored former WBA and IBO world champion Simpiwe Vetyeka (30-4, 18 KOs), and fibe months later he stopped former IBF and IBO world champion Nkosinathi Joyi (29-6-1, 19 KOs) in three rounds.
