Sofiane Oumiha from France faces off against Costa Rica's Francisco Fonseca for the WBA Gold Lightweight Title in Benghazi, Libya. This match is part of the undercard leading up to the main event featuring Mirco Cuello vs Sergio Rios.
Oumiha turned pro recently in 2022, having won 6 fights and lost 1. As an opponent, his resume is light on notable names but shows promise as he shifts from amateur to pro status.
