Tanzanian veteran Mfaume “One Punch”
Mfaume is set to take on Egypt´s
Abdumonem Said for the vacant World
Boxing Federation (WBF) All Africa
Super Welterweight title on July 1
at Diamond Jubilee Hall in Dar Es
Salaam.
The 30-year-old, born and raised in
Dar Es Salaam, is a former East &
Central Africa champion, and brings
a 16-8-2 (7) record to the party.
His opponent, nicknamed
“Braveheart”, is a two-weight
Egyptian national champion, and has
compiled a fine 22-2-1 (11) record
since turning professional in 2009.
Both fighters are coming off losses,
as Mfaume was beat by Rizvan
Elikhanov in Russia in his most
recent outing, and Said faced defeat
against Zhankosh Turarovon a trip to
Kazakhstan last December, so both
will be motivated to prove they
still have a future in the sport.
Promoted by Tyson Mkindi and GROBOX
Sports Promotion, the fight will be
aired live in Tanzania by Azam
Sports 1.
