Bantamweight Benson Gicharu faces off with Turkish Selcute Eker during the third round of the Amateur Professional Boxing(APB) championships in Paris, France on Thursday.
Gicharu, who has so far taken part in two bouts (won one, lost one) must overcome the Turkish boxer to enhance his chances of making it to next year's Rio Olympics. Gicharu jets out this weekend alongside two coaches David Munuhe and Maurice Maina.
