[QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 30364, member: 2262"] Flame Special One Nangolo claimed the WBO Africa Super Featherweight championship on Saturday night. He defeated Felix Ajoma from Ghana at the Roman Catholic Hall in Windhoek. AC Boxing Sport and Entertainment set up the fight card. Fast jabs and hard body shots from the Namibian fighter left his opponent struggling throughout the match. Nangolo has a perfect record of 12 victories in 12 fights. Four of those wins came by knockout before this bout. Ajoma stepped into the ring with 23 professional matches behind him – 20 wins, two losses, and one draw. Despite having 17 knockout victories himself, the Ghanaian boxer had no answer for Nangolo's quickness and precision. Just two minutes into round four, a stomach hook sent Ajoma to the canvas, where he failed to beat the count. When speaking to the media afterward, Nangolo expressed happiness about capturing the title. He explained that winning championships has always been his dream since his uncle Imms Moses introduced him to boxing. He vowed to continue training hard until he received a chance at a world title. His dedication to boxing goals came through clearly in his comments. Other exciting bouts filled out the event card. Shikukuta Jona defeated Hango Petrus when their match ended in the second round. Jonas Jonas of Walvis Bay's Kambinda Boxing Gym overcame Paulus Amavila from AC Boxing Gym. Two judges scored 39-37 for Jonas, though one judge saw it as 36-40 for Amavila, making for a split decision. Robert Ndelelwa battled against newcomer Nicanor Mungonena from Otavi's Knockout Boxing Club. The first-time pro fighter competed hard through all four rounds but came up short. One judge scored it even at 38-38, but two others marked it 39-37 and 40-36 against him. This gave Ndelelwa his third victory in six professional matches. Shanyengange Shanyengange, representing Chris Junior Boxing Gym of Ondangwa, squared off against experienced Hafeni Ngesheya. The Ondangwa fighter pressed forward until he injured his shoulder during the third round. Medical staff advised stopping the action after 1:44, resulting in officials declaring a technical draw between the competitors. Walter The Executioner Kautondoka made his comeback after five years away from boxing. He made quick work of Liberty Muwani from Zimbabwe. Muwani appeared intimidated and lasted merely one minute and thirty seconds before Kautondoka secured an effortless victory. The returning boxer showed his punching power remained intact despite his long absence. Charles Shinima dominated Dickson Said from Malawi from start to finish. Said avoided engagement during the first round until Shinima caught him with ten seconds remaining. Said managed to survive that knockdown. Shinima sent Said to the canvas twice more in round two, but the Malawian kept rising. By the third round, the referee intervened as Said had no path to victory against Shinima's overwhelming attack. Harry Simon Junior extended his winning streak by defeating Tranos Zihove of Zimbabwe. The referee called a halt to the contest after just two rounds, awarding Simon Junior a technical knockout. This result adds to his growing list of successes as a professional boxer from Namibia. [/QUOTE]
