Danish Primetime Promotion has signed up Swedish light-heavyweight prospect Costas Nanga (13-0, 9 KO). Nanga, managed by Oliver Cabrera, will make his debut for his new promoter on January 31 in Kolding (Denmark) but who he will fight isn’t announced yet.

The 29-year-old was born in Luanda, Angola, where his mother had just arrived after fleeing from Congo. Costas then arrived in Sweden as a child and first got into Muay Thai before getting into boxing.

He turned pro in 2018 and was off to a busy start but has had only two fights in the last two years due to injuries and cancelled fights.

Also added to the Kolding bill is Cuban heavyweight Carlos Castillo Rodriguez (9-0) who is in against Italian Gianmarco Cardillo (12-1-2).

On top super-middleweight Jacob Bank (17-0) defends the WBO Gold title against Cuban William Scull (23-1).
