Tanzania's showboating pro boxer Karim ‘Mtu Kazi’ Mandonga has promised to punish his Kenyan opponent Daniel Wanyonyi severely when the two pugilists square it out in a 10-round super-middleweight non-title bout at the KICC Ball Room in Nairobi on Saturday night
It’s also the same warning that Kenya's inspirational boxer Rayton "Boom Boom" Okwiri has extended to his Tanzanian opponent Ally Ndaro, telling the latter to prepare for 10 painful rounds in the night.
"As usual I don't underestimate my opponents, I give Ndaro the respect he deserves but let him know he has a long night on Saturday," said Okwiri (8-1-1, 6 KOs).
Okwiri, a former Africa Boxing Union champion, will face Ndaro (5-0-1, 2 KOs) in a non-title middleweight main fight on the day.
At the same time, Big-talking Mandonga says he is not cowed by Wanyonyi’s decorated tale of the tape which stands at 27 fights including 22 KOs, 14 losses and two draws.
