Four more bouts added to bonanza The MTC Sunshine Academy yesterday added four bouts to its boxing bonanza, which is scheduled to take place tomorrow at the Windhoek Country Club.The bonanza will be headlined by former WBA lightweight world champion Paulus ‘Hitman’ Moses, who will take on Tanzania’s Cosmos Cheka in a WBO Africa lightweight title fight over 12 rounds.
The fights were originally scheduled to start at 19:00 but will now begin two hours earlier.
Among the new faces are three undefeated boxers: Paulinus Paulus, who has won all four of his fights so far, Jacob Jacob, who is yet to lose after three bouts, and Andreas Amupolo, who has fought only once before.
Amupolo will take on Immanuel ‘No Fear’ Shapaka in the evening’s first bout.
The October boxing fest is traditionally the second last of the MTC Sunshine Academy bonanzas, with another one likely to take place in December.
Tickets for the fight cost N$300 per person and N$10 000 for a table seating ten people.
