On January 31, 2026, Bangkok, Thailand will stage a major Asian boxing showdown as Britain’s Prince Patel faces Tanzania’s unbeaten knockout artist Yahaya Mussa for the vacant WBA Asia Gold super lightweight title.
Patel (33-1-2, 28 KOs) follows a quiet 2025 in which he fought just once and ended matters by knockout. The Blackburn native has built a reputation around an aggressive, technically sharp style and an ability to carry power up through the divisions, from bantamweight and super bantamweight to super lightweight. With an 84% knockout rate, Patel now looks to add another regional title to his résumé.
Mussa arrives as a dangerous unknown outside Africa, sporting an 11-0-1 record with all 11 victories coming by knockout. The Tanzanian has bulldozed his domestic opposition and brings the confidence of a fighter who has never been beaten. Although January 31 will mark his debut on Thai soil, his perfect finishing rate signals immediate danger for any opponent.
