The first female boxer to win the Mojisola Ogunsanya Memorial Trophy at GOtv Boxing Night, Bolatito “Black Tito” Oluwole, has said her aim is to retain the trophy at the 30th edition of the boxing showpiece, on December 26. 
Her national cruiserweight challenge fight against Blessing Abisoye, is one of the six bouts scheduled for the event, at the Tafawa Balewa Square, Victoria Island, Lagos.
She won the trophy as the best boxer at GOtv Boxing Night 29, after defeating Celina ‘Pretty Assassin’ Agwu, via a unanimous decision, to win the national female cruiserweight title.
Speaking from her training base in Lagos on Sunday, ‘Black Tito’ said the injury she sustained during the title fight has fully healed, and she’s in top shape for the fight. “I dislocated my shoulder during the fight against Celina, and the hand is fully healed now. I was elated to make history. It was the best night of my career so far, and I would love to have that feeling again. My aim is to win the Mojisola Ogunsanya Memorial Trophy again, and of course, the cash prize that comes with it,” she said.
‘Black Tito’ has won all of her eight professional bouts, with a record of five knockouts, while Abisoye has a record of one win and one defeat from her two professional fights.
Also scheduled for the night is a West African Boxing Union (WABU) super welterweight title bout between Taiwo “Gentle Boy” Olowu, and Ghanaian boxer, Michael Ansah. Arabambi Ojo and Ibrahim “Golden Boy” Opeyemi will face each other in national bantamweight challenge bout, Sifon “Best” Iwatt and Saheed Azeez will battle for the national super flyweight title, Ayanfe Adeoye will face Ahmed Ganiyu in a national light welterweight category bout, while Abdulafeez “Big Name” Osoba will square up against Christopher Ucheji, in the national super welterweight category.
