The 26-year old from Vijayawada in India turned professional in May of 2022, and is now 4-0 as a prize-fighter. All four of his wins have come inside three rounds.

There is no doubt that he packs a punch, but when he was matched against the much more experienced Nasoro Madimba (12-5-3) for the vacant UBO title last February in New Delhi, it was fair to wonder if it was a bit too early for him.

But Naidu rose to the occasion, and had little trouble dismantling Madimba, stopping him in the third round.

He is rightfully considered the number-one Super Featherweight in India, which has around forty active fighters in that division and more than five-hundred professional boxers across all weight-classes.

Unfortunately for Naidu he has not yet been able to build on the momentum he gained by becoming UBO champion, as no fight has since materialized for him.

But he is still young, and if 2024 brings him regular activity he could be in line to fight for the UBO world title in the not too distant future, and potentially realize his dream with a victory.

He certainly has the talent to go all the way!
