                    [Title] => Now or never for Tiger Ari
                    [Summary] => He’s not getting any younger. And Tiger Ari, 34, is running out of time. The two-time Oriental and Pacific Boxing Federation (OPBF) superfeatherweight champion is also running out of opposition in this part of the world.


So it was no surprise when Ari – whose real name is Eder Olivetti – relinquished his OPBF crown to fight Cassius Ponani Baloyi for the vacant International Boxing Organization (IBO) 130-pound title at the Carnival City Arena in Drakpan, South Africa, on April 17.

Like vintage wine, he gets better with age. His secret? No vices.

Ari takes his career seriously. He’s dedicated. His focus is unflinching. When he’s inside the ring, Ari is a picture of confidence because he’s always well-trained. He’s got all the tools – he packs a mean wallop, he has a vast repertoire of punches, he’s smart, he’s tough to hit, and he’s durable.
