Speaking with SportsDay after the fight, the 2003 All-Africa Games gold medalists says "I could tell right away that I was too strong for him, I could see that he didn't like getting hit to the body and that my uppercuts were hurting him.

"Though Zulfikar is strong, but I believe I gave him some doze of my African might," he added.

Commenting on his next title fight billed for March 22 against Yuki Nonic for the Oriental Pacific Boxing Federation title, the new PABA champion says fighting Ali was a good timing as the fight has aided his preparations for Yuki maintaining that Yuki will also be getting some doze of his African might.
