New Delhi, July 16 (IBNS): Confident about taking down his opponent, pugilist Vijender Singh, who turned professional last year and has remained unbeaten in the six matches he has fought so far, promises to continue his streak as he takes on Australian Kerry Hope on Saturday in the national capital.

The Indian boxer will face Hope for the WBO Asia pacific Super Middleweight belt.

Tweeting about his preparation, Vijender said, "Dilli me baarish ho rahi hai, Aaj shaam Dilli me Mukkon ki Baarish karne ki puri koshish karunga. Bas aap aa jaana " (It's raining here in Delhi today. I will try to rain punches in the evening. Please do come.)

In his short career, Vijender has earned the tag of knockout king, as he has won all his previous six matches by knocking out his opponents.
