Muhammad Waseem's comeback bout against John Chuwa on Glasgow’s MTK Fight Night postponed

Pakistani pro boxer, Muhammad Waseem was to return to the ring with his comeback bout against John Chuwa on 22nd June, 2019 at MTK Global Glasgow Center, Scotland but now it has been postponed.

Muhammad ‘The Falcon’ Waseem was controversially denied the International Boxing Federation (IBF) world flyweight crown in his last bout when he went down against, now MTK Global team-mate, Moruti Mthalane in Kuala Lumpur in June 2018.

Since then he has not been seen in action but is determined to rise to the top level again against his first hurdle, an eight-rounder, the much talented Tanzanian, John Chuwa (17-3, 9 KOs) but as he looks to steal the show at the Emirates Arena, the bout got postponed.

Waseem informed through a Facebook post which said:

"IMPORTANT NEWS! 
Due to certain technical complexities the fight has been postponed for few days, stay tuned I will let you know the new dates soon. Please do remember me in your prayers."

Although the bout is postponed, it is so for only for a few days to which the Pakistan skilled fighter, Waseem is still full of confidence as he said: 


“I’ve seen Chuwa fight before. I know what I can do against him and I’m very confident of beating him. I’ll show I’m a champion on the fight night. I’m working very hard to be in the best shape and sparring has been very good so I’ll be ready for whatever Chuwa brings on the night."
He also expressed his gratitude for MTK Global saying:

“I’m pleased to be with MTK Global and training with Danny Vaughan. We’ve changed lots of combinations and adjusted my style. Danny is a very good trainer. This is a good fight for me to come back with but I know I’m going to win on the night. I can’t wait for the atmosphere. It’s my debut as an MTK Global fighter and they’re great people who are supporting me. I’m sharp, fit and I just can’t wait for that first bell.”
The 31 year old boxer from Quetta holds an historic record of 8-1, 6 KOs and is going to have a comeback at the MTK Global Glasgow Centre in a bout which is scheduled to be held on 22nd June against an Tanzanian counterpart, John Chuwa. Waseem is undoubtedly one of the best boxers produced by Pakistan.
