The event held at the Molade Okoya – Thomas Indoor Sports Hall, Teslim Balogun Stadium, Lagos on Sunday and had many boxing fans cheering her to victory as she courageously pummeled her opponent.
Tito, as she is fondly called by fans, had begun the bout on a good nite, delivering some hard punches, to garner some valuable points at the beginning of the fight.
