On May 2nd in Tbilisi in the Republic of Georgia, middleweight Givi Todua will bematched up against Elmo Traya from the Philippines. Todua, 6-0 with 4 KOs, got a quality win last September when he stopped Thailand´s Phumiritdet Chonlathondamrongkhun in six rounds. He's tuned up with an easy fight once since then. Still only 21 years old, the Georgian hero will take on his best opponent to date in Treya, who brings a recird of 16-6 with 11 KOs. Having boxed all over the world in an accomplished amateur career, Todua turned professional in the summer of 2024. Traya, although still only 31 years of age, is a veteran with thirteen years of pro experience. He's had some success, but mostly at junior welterweight and welterweight, so this seems like too big a jump in weight for the visitor. Still, he will not be fazed by going into his opponents back yard.
