After settling for a technical draw last December, due to injury, Tanzanian Selemani Kidunda and Erick Katompa from D. R. Congo finally got a chance to set the record straight on Saturday, July 30, in Songea, Tanzania.
With the vacant World Boxing Federation (WBF) Intercontinental Super Middleweight title at stake, the pair headlined a show promoted by Peak Time Promotions at the Majimaji Stadium.
This time there would be no doubt as to who was the better man, as Kidunda out-boxed his foe and won a clear unanimous decision.
After ten rounds of action, judges Pembe Ndava and Habibu Mkarafuu both scored the fight 97-92, while judge Pendo Njau saw it 99-90, all for the home man.
With the victory, Kidunda improved his professional record to 8-0-1 (7). Katompa falls to 13-2-1 (5).
