Boxer Wasim returns home

ISLAMABAD (Nov 24, 2019) – Pakistani boxer Muhammad Waseem returned home on Sunday after winning the 10th professional bout of his career in Dubai.

Muhammad Waseem outclassed Mexico’s Ganigan Lopez in an intense battle of eight rounds at Ceasars Palace in Dubai last week.

Officials of the Pakistan Sports Board (PSB) greeted Waseem upon his arrival at Islamabad International Airport (IIA).

The 32-year-old Waseem has so far appeared in 11 fights in his pro career, winning all but one loss to South Africa’s Moruti Mthalane in a world title bout.

Talking to news persons in Islamabad, he said I am very happy for the win and will continue to make my country proud in future as well. Waseem added that he was in talks about bringing MTK Global — a boxing management company — to Pakistan. He said that a gym would be set up in the country and they would promote boxing so that other players like himself come forward.

His message for the youth was to work hard and do something for their country.

Waseem said he would be going to Spain for a short training camp after a one week stay in Pakistan.
