World Boxing Federation (WBF) International Super Bantamweight champion Hassan Milanzi from Zimbabwe will make his first title defense on March 29, and it is likely going to be a tough one.
Nicknamed “Starboy”, Milanzi, 13-3-1 (8), will take on experienced Tanzanian Haidari Mchanjo, 20-11-7 (7), in one of the featured bouts of a show billed as Rise Of the Champions 5.
Milanzi (27) won the WBF title last November, when he stopped Malawian Clifford Antafu in five rounds at the 7 Arts Theatre in Harare, and now he returns to the same venue to defend his crown.
Former Tanzanian champion Mchanjo, the younger man by one year, turned professional in 2016 and has boxed outside his native country several times.
For both men, winning on March 29 will be their most significant victory to date. Styles makes fights, and this one shapes up to be a very good one.
