On Saturday, May 7, at the Studio
Maman Angebi in Kinshasa, D. R.
Congo, undefeated local Heavyweight
Issa Kayembe captured the vacant
World Boxing Federation (WBF) All
Africa title.
With a lively crowd cheering him on,
Kayembe defeated co-challenger
Vincent Muziri from Zimbabwe in
convincing fashion.
Kayembe got off to a relatively slow
start, but picked up the pace and
his output significantly in round
three, before eventually getting the
stoppage in round five.
At that point Kayembe was dominating
to a point where Muziri was not able
to defend himself, and referee David
Van Niewenhuizen from South Africa
had seen enough.
Kayembe improved his professional
record to 6-0 (4), while Muziri
falls to 7-4 (4).
The fight was promoted by Adolph
Katende and his V. Club Promotion.
