Injured Ngutenyane weathers the storm
Harry Simon Jr back with a bang
The MTC Salute Boxing Academy lived up to expectations after its boxers successfully defended their titles at the Safari Hotel in Windhoek on Saturday.
Namibian boxer Fillemon Ngutenyane said he had to improvise to secure a victory after injuring his right hand in the first round of his title defence.
Ngutenyane successfully defended his WBA PAN Africa title after beating Ally Ngwando of Tanzania by TKO in the seventh round.
"I injured my right hand, and so I had to use my left for most of the rounds.
"I am happy that I managed to get the victory at the end of the day, successfully defending my title in the process," Ngutenyane noted.
