Obaid: A Story of Redemption

Di Bartolo Seeks Redemption
On the other side of the ring will be Alfredo Di Bartolo, representing ASD Boxe Fitness Barge.

Obaid vs Di Bartolo represents much more than just a title fight. It’s the meeting of two different paths, two ambitions, and two fighting styles. On May 15, Ferrara will become the heart of Italian boxing for one night, and fans can expect a thrilling display of heart, skill, and intensity.
