Over the past year, it has been clear that we pride ourselves on making competitive cards full of 50-50 fights, which will be the same again for this show. It is a great privilege to have Archie Sharp headlining the event in a tough test against Alexis Boureima Kabore. Archie has world title ambitions, and this fight gives him the chance to show everybody that he belongs at that level. We have some of the very best undefeated rising stars in action, including Tursynbay Kulakhmet, Shabaz Masoud, and Pierce O'Leary, plus two undefeated fighters putting it all on the line early in their careers as Jordan Reynolds faces Randal Barlow. Sam Gilley, William Hamilton, Joe Giles, Sugar Shy, and Lerone Harrison are on the bill, too, with the remaining opponents for those fights set to be announced shortly, so this looks certain to be yet another cannot miss MTK Fight Night event."

Sharp is undefeated as a professional boxer. He stopped one of his previous five rivals. His previous five matches have come over a time frame of more than two years. This shows that he has been in matches on average every six months. In these matches, he has fought in a total of nearly 45 rounds. This shows that they have lasted nearly nine rounds on average. In his previous fight, he defeated Diego Andrade Chavez some months ago by unanimous decision in their contest at the Royal Albert Hall in London, UK. Before that, he had defeated Jeff Ofori a year ago by points at BT Sport Studio, London. Getting into that match, he had defeated Artjoms Ramlavs a couple of years ago by unanimous decision in their match at Copper Box Arena, London. Before that, Sharp had won over Declan Geraghty in the same year by knockout at Royal Albert Hall, London. He gained a victory against Jordan McCorry by unanimous decision at their match at the O2 Arena, London.
Tim Rickson, a BBN editor, said: "Archie Sharp comes from the same place as me in Welling, so I am always going to be backing him to win. During the lockdown, he had a bit of trouble against an enthused Jeff Ofori. The latter put in a career-best performance just to be denied by a single point on the scorecard. That was a difficult period for all boxers, so I believe he is back to his best now. He proved that with his recent victory over Diego Andrade Chavez in July. As WBO #2, he is just one fight away from a world title shot at the winner of Jamel Herring vs. Shakur Stevenson, which takes place the weekend before. I believe there is more at stake for him than ever, so he will be at his very best on fight night, especially in familiar surroundings in his home city of London.
Kabore does not possess power, but he has previously gone the distance with former world champion Rey Vargas, so I expect this title fight to go the full 10-rounds, with Sharp winning unanimously."
Kabore is presently the favorite to win the match outright. But you can take a chance on Archie Sharp if you feel that there might be an upset in the match.
