“I’ll knock him out” - Boucher Ketchup promises to finish compatriot Oumar ‘Reug Reug’ Kane

ONE debutant Boucher Ketchup is ready to brawl in a heavyweight kicboxing tilt against fellow Senegalese fighter Oumar Kane.

The last minute banger of a fight was added to ONE Fight Night 23 on July 5, which will go down in US primetime from the iconic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

This match became the latest hype for both fighters, as the Fitness Combat Gym Senegal star believes he would be able to take out Kane before the three-rounder match reaches the end.

Speaking to ONE Championship recently, Boucher Ketchup said:

“I am fighting ‘Reug Reug’ to show the Senegal fans and the world that I am greater than him. It was always a fight to be made, and it’s now finally happening.”

When asked about how he would take the victory, the proud Senegalese added:

“I’ll knock him out in the second round and show ONE I can do it. Boucher Ketchup is here!”

It would be a big upset if the 34-year-old is able to knock Kane out, since 'Reug Reug' has also been scheduled to challenge Anatoly Malykhin's heavyweight MMA belt on November 8.
