"I have trained very well and I am hundred percent confident. I am strong both mentally and physically and Insh'Allah I will go for a win. It now depends on luck but I will definitely fight for a win."
Meanwhile, Waseem’s coach, Danny Vaughan was of the view that,
"Waseem has been training really hard for the fight. His opponent (Tenamor) is a very strong fighter but we are confident. Waseem is itching to compete and get this opponent out of the way."
