Fatuma Zarika, 33-13-2 (17), moved up two weight classes, from Super Bantamweight to Super Featherweight, to win the vacant World Boxing Federation (WBF) Women’s World title on November 13 in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania.
She defeated game co-challenger Patience Mastara from Zimbabwe by unanimous decision, and is the WBF Boxer of the Month for November 2020.
Arguably the best Kenyan female boxer of all time, certainly the most accomplished, Zarika (35) is a former WBC World Champion, having lost that title last year in her fourth defense.
