Super-welterweight prospect Junaid Bostan is set to make his American debut on Saturday, December 16 as part of the Jesse Rodriguez-Sunny Edwards show in Glendale, Arizona. In an interview with Boxing News, Bostan discusses his early career, his upbringing on a council estate, his school years, and his goals in the 154lbs division.
Bostan reflects on the early days of his career, saying that he always had confidence in reaching the top and wanting to stand out from the rest. He talks about his rapid rise in the boxing world, from signing with big promoters to fighting in America sooner than expected.
He explains that his desire to stand out has been a consistent theme throughout his whole life, wanting to be genuine and show people his true self. He also admits to being a bit of a troublemaker in school but attributes his success to the support he received for his boxing career.
Growing up in Eastwood, Bostan acknowledges the challenges and stigma associated with the area but remains proud of his roots and wants to represent it in the best way possible.
Discussing his seven fights so far, Bostan is satisfied with his performances and is excited about what’s to come. He expresses confidence in his future and intends to be at the top domestically and calling for titles within the next year.
While being focused on himself, Bostan keeps an eye on the British scene at 154lbs and believes in his superiority as a fighter. He also expresses his intention to stay in the light-middleweight division for the time being but remains open to the possibility of moving up in weight in the future.
Regarding his American debut, Bostan emphasizes his desire to put on a show and make a statement, particularly against his opponent, Gordie Russ II, who had been talking a big game on social media. He is determined to back up his words with a strong performance in the ring.
