ZAMBIA’s MUZEYA KNOCKS OUT GHANAIAN BOXING QUEEN

By ZANIS:

Zambian boxing prodigy, LOLITA MUZEYA,  has knocked out Ghanaian boxing queen, YARKOR CHAVEZ ANNAN, in the first round of the non-title super welterweight fight in Accra, Ghana.

ZANIS Sports reports that MUZEYA, dubbed the Black Diamond, knocked out ANNAN in the first round of their scheduled eight round bout at a sold out 4-thousand seat capacity Boxing Arena on Sunday, March 6, 2022 in the Ghanaian capital Accra.

The 31-year-old Muzeya, who is a former WBC Silver female welterweight champion, unleashed a flurry of punches that dazed the 39-year-old ANNAN in the first round and sent her to the canvas.

Speaking from Accra, MUZEYA’s promoter and manager, CHRISTOPHER MALUNGA, said Muzeya proved to be too strong for Annan who has been revered as Ghana’s first lady of boxing.

MUZEYA’s fight against Annan was an undercard to the International Boxing Federation (IBF) Africa Super Lightweight Championship during the rumble to Freedom boxing tournament held to commemorate Ghana’s 65th independence anniversary.

She is expected back home on Wednesday, March 9, 2022, to continue preparing for her next big fight.

Oriental Quarries Boxing Promotions Administrative Secretary BEN SAILI said Oriental’s partners, Icon Sports of the UK, are lining up a world title shot for Muzeya.

SAILI said Muzeya is at her pinnacle and needs big title fights out of Africa as most African female boxers are scared of her.
