His last fight was a victory over Christian Okeke in June.
Campbell on the other hand is a knockout specialist. He has six knockouts with no draw and no loss. He also beat Malkhaz Sujashvili at Emperors Palace in June.
Campbell says his opponent does not stand a chance.
“I have put in a lot of work this time. I am training as hard as ever. So, my coach has taught me a lot more skill. I feel that my skill is growing and I am excited for this fight.”
Hobyani says Campbell will see the stars.
“I have been sparring with the big guys Khotso Motaung. He’s a big puncher. So, Rowen Campbell is still young, but Friday I am going to fight.”

Wade, a cage fighter-turned-boxer is undefeated in six fights. They will be fighting for the South African Middleweight Interim title over 12 rounds.
