But I\u2019m not sure at the moment to go for it or not but, hopefully, it will be finalized in the coming days,\u201d he told media.<br \/>\nHe was of the view that he would decide about the fight after discussing it with his team. \u201cWe will look for the sponsor and days left for the fight then will take the final call,\u201d he said. Taimoor said if he goes for it then, he would \u201cfully prepare for the fight\u201d but if the results don\u2019t go in his favour then it won\u2019t be disappointing.<br \/>\n\u201cIt won\u2019t matter if I lose the fight because I will be risking fighting a world champion which is an honour,\u201d he added. Speaking about his last Asian Boxing Federation Heavyweight Championship fight, he said he was going through a tough phase prior to the fight as his mother wasn\u2019t well. \u201cBut Thank God my mother is recovering now.
