Boxer Rayton Okwiri has set himself a target of a world title fight by next year. The middleweight fighter, who turned pro recently, revealed that all his current fights are geared towards preparing him for his ultimate ambition. “When I turned professional, my objective was to fight for world titles. Okwiri is set to defend his ABU title, a fight he reckons will announce him at the world stage as a full-time professional fighter after ditching the amateur ranks. Okwiri was one of the two Kenyans recruited to the Amateur Professional Boxing (APB) ranks, an experience he says made his transition easier.
