THERE'S only one Mo Nasir!

Well actually there are two, but Pill's light flyweight boxing sensation is aiming to prove that he's the main man in Melbourne.

The St Joseph's gym product faces Pakistan's Mohammad Nisar in the quarter-finals tomorrow after a sensational 27-12 victory against highly-rated Ghanaian Manyo Plange at the Melbourne Exhibition Centre.

The manner of his victory had fans on their feet as he totally outboxed his opponent from the first bell.

He is still on course to bring home gold, but knows he has a tricky obstacle in the next round.

He said: "There are two lads with the same name fighting in the next round and I want to show that there is only one Mo Nasir."

The Welshman was clearly nervous during his first fight at the 2006 Common-wealth Games, but yesterday he oozed confidence and looked the real deal.

He was still full of that confidence after the fight and was delighted with how he boxed.

He said: " I totally outboxed him today, I think the boy came into the ring thinking it was going to be a similar sort of fight to his first round opponent, but it wasn't.

"I had no nerves, I just needed to get the first round out of the way and I felt so comfortable out there.

"I said yesterday that once you get the first one out of the way then you get used to the arena and the crowd and I'm loving it now, I've got the crowd behind me and I'm so confident."

If Nasir can get past his namesake in the next round then he is due to fight England's Darran Langley, who is favourite for gold in this division.

But Nasir is bullish about his chance against the Manchester Commonwealth Games silver medallist.

He said: "I've just got to focus on my next opponent, but when I win I'll meet Langley in the semis.

"Langley is a good boxer, but I'm not a boy anymore, I'm a man and I'm coming to get him." Meanwhile, Kevin Evans, Darren Edwards, and Jamie Algar-Cress are all also through to the quarter-finals.
