Fijis Golden Boy, Joy the Jet Ali is cautious of New Zealand's boxer, Steve Heremaia who is known to be a knockout machine in New Zealand.
The two boxers clash in a middleweight contest in Nadi next week and both have a chance to improve their rankings.
Ali is rated 152nd in his middleweight category while Heremaia is rated 185th in his light middleweight category.
Ali said Heremaia who is also dubbed as 'mini Mike Tyson' will give him a hard time in ring.
Heremaia has so far won 15 fights, seven with knockouts and has lost four.
Joy Ali and Heremaia will fight in a 10 by 3 contest bout while Junior Farzan Ali and Australian based Rey Anton Olarte will contest in an 8 by 3 bout.
The program will be held on next Saturday at Prince Charles Park.
