Nigeria's Iron lady set to fight Horgasx from Hungary
Helen ‘Iron Lady’ Joseph is ready for action against Hungarian Martina Horgasx today 28 August in her bumpy return to professional boxing, at the Foxwoods Resort, Mashantucket, Connecticut, United States. The Super-Bantamweight fight, is the second for the 30-year-old after a one-year competition drought occasioned by lack of sponsorship. On April 3, Joseph ended the one-year break by defeating Edina Kiss, another Hungarian, by unanimous decision in a six-round Super-Bantamweight in New York. The path to Thursday was rocky for the talented U.S.-based boxer, who had to buy the fight. She had to raise 10,000 dollars required by organisers to give her an opponent by Nigerians consulate assisting in sale of tickets.
