His announcement comes the week after he announced he would be running for president in his home country.
“I am a fighter and I will always be a fighter inside and outside the ring. In my whole life, I have not backed out of a fight,” the boxer said while accepting the nomination to run for president at the PDP-Laban Party’s national assembly.
