“I am the first person under the TBK promotion to win their first two matches by knockouts,” said Coxen.
“Because the promotion is new in the country, there is no reigning champion, therefore the goal is to be the first titleholder in the country.
“After winning the fight against Bester, I called my shot to the title,” said Coxen.
Coxen now shifts his focus to training and focusing on his gym.
