Desert Storm ready to hit
Unbeaten World Boxing Organisation (WBO) Africa featherweight champion Sakaria 'Desert Storm' Lukas is ready to take on Malawi's Yamikikani Mkandawire on 6 December.
Sakaria 'Desert Storm' Lukas is ready to step into the ring to exchange leather with Malawi's Yamikikani Mkandawire, according to his trainer Immanuel 'Imms' Moses.
Moses said the boxer wants to win in spectacular fashion on Friday and prove he is the best in the business.
“We can't overlook this fight. We trained like this fight is a championship fight. Lukas is rated number six by the International Boxing Federation (IBF) and number nine by the World Boxing Association (WBA). This is very big for Desert Storm,” emphasised Moses.
He added they are operating on a tight budget, as they don't have a committed sponsor.
“I'm doing this through hard work, but I will never forget to thank my people who are always there to assist. These people include John Endjala Investment, Ready Bites Meat Market, Mikel Jes, 3Dimension Printing and Profile Investment.
“And my international partner Scott Farrell of Global Boxing, Sean Gibson the president of Manny Pacquio Promotions and Room Air for sponsoring us with boxing gloves for our fight,” Moses said.
He further called corporates to support them by buying tables, as this will cover expenses.
Lukas said he is ready to take care of his opponent and further urged boxing fans to make their way to the venue to see him in action.
The showdown, themed 'Rising Stars of Africa', will take place at the Paragon Crescent Suites in Windhoek. The boxing event is promoted by AC Boxing Promotions, in association with Kinda Promotions.
Lukas boasts a record of 22 fights, all of them wins, whereas his opponent has a record of 15 fights, with seven wins, one draw and seven losses.
The undercard fights on the night are as follows:
Flaime Nangolo versus David Johannes, Max Iipinge versus Hedison Nghipondoka, Ebenestus Kaangundue versus Kagiso Bagwasi of Botswana, Steven Bagwasi versus Sheehama Sakaria, Kathano Ogaketse from Botswana versus David Shinua and Matias Hamunyela versus Nghikevali Mathew.
Tickets for the event are available at AC Boxing Academy and Paragon, and sell for N$200. A table for 10 costs N$10 000.
