South Africa-based Congolese Amador
Kalonji won the vacant World Boxing
Federation (WBF) All Africa
Cruiserweight title on Friday night,
August 30.
At the Vibrant Sports Complex in
Cape Town, Kalonji over-powered
South African Sandiso Kota in a
great action fight, forcing Kota to
retire after six rounds.
While Kalonji probably edged every
round, Kota gave it his everything
and made him work for it, but the
strength and power of Kalonji was
just too much in the end as Kota
took a lot of hard shots.
The new WBF champion won his first
professional title and takes his
record to 7-1 (3). Kota falls to 4-2
(2).
Interestingly, the fight was
interestingly supervised by Sam
Goldberg who did a fine job after
being taught well by his father, WBF
President Howard Goldberg.
Promoters were Jackie Brice Boxing
Promotions and David Faas Boxing
Productions.
