For someone blessed with massive boxing talent, it is hard to believe that Ludumo “9mm” Lamati does not have a world title to his name, despite being a professional boxer since 2014 and yet to lose any of his 18 fights.

But that is something he is hoping to change when he takes on Mexico's Jose Martin Estrada Garcia in an IBO junior-featherweight championship on June 19.

Some boxers like Hekkie Budler were already world champions after 18 fights, yet they are no match for Lamati in terms of talent. The fight against Garcia will be the main attraction in Golden Gloves' tournament at Emperors Palace. The champion last fought two years ago when he stopped Brandon Azael Romero in five rounds for his sixth short-route victory.
