(MAR 8) Tanzanian Middleweight Monica
Mwakasanga arrived into Nairobi for her scheduled rematch against
Kenyan Conjestina Achieng for Saturday's Pound4Pound Boxing card
promoted by Kenyan Promoter Atomic Bunde of Timebomb Promotions.
Monica who has fought Conjestina three times before, losing twice
and winning the Kenyan once was breathing fire.
"'The last time I lost to Achieng, the referee stopped the fight yet
I still had the energy to continue. I also had a problem with my
ring boots at the fight and that is no more, there will
be good action, and this time Ii promise that Achieng
will not last the distance with me", said Mwakasanga.
The Tanzanian who has been preparing for this fight
for the last two months, exhuded confidence. Achieng has lost three
out of her last five fights, losing to Americans,
Yvonne Rreis (WBC Middleweight), Janaya Davis and Laura Ramsey for
the GBU Middleweight Title in January 2007. This will be the first
of three non-title fights that Achieng has to win before
reconsideration to the title fights.
The boxing events will feature six men's boxing matches on the
undercard bouts including the National Middleweight Title between
Shadrack Kipruto and Steven Esonga.
The fights will be aired Live on
KBC CHannel one from 2:00 PM. Release: Edward Sande
