New kid on the block, Simeon Tcheta has challenged struggling boxer Kudakwache Nkhakamila Banda for a non-title middleweight contest.<\/p>\n
The eight-rounder is scheduled for M1 Centre Point in Lilongwe on April 2.<\/p>\n
Kudakwache is making a comeback after suffering two successive losses to Limbani Masamba.<\/p>\n
Considered as the next big thing to have happened in domestic boxing circles, Kudakwache surrendered his perfect record and the welterweight title after the two knockout defeats.<\/p>\n
Now Kudakwache has, following advice from experts, switched to the middleweight category.<\/p>\n
However, he will likely have it tough against Tcheta who is undefeated in five fights Tcheta has since vowed to frustrate Kudakwache.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have already defeated the guys he conquered before. I think I beat them in style too. It seems Kudakwache is returning to middleweight because he has been frustrated in welterweight division. However, I will guarantee him one thing\u2014 that his misery is not over. I will pound him further,\u201d Tcheta said.<\/p>\n
Tcheta, 24, boasts a record of three knockouts having defeated Roy Yuda, Yusuf Dilla, Dickson Saidi and Lameck Mkangama.<\/p>\n
Kudakwache, 23, said he was delighted with Tcheta\u2019s challenge.<\/p>\n
\u201cAll I want is to bounce back in winning style. Tcheta is a good boxer but I will show no mercy on him. I want to begin another chapter,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Kudakwache has 12 wins and two defeats.<\/p>\n
New Dawn Boxing Promotions Managing Director, Mike Chimaliza, confirmed the bill, saying the winner will earn another fight.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe want to motivate both boxers to aim for victory so that they can stand a chance of vying for another fight. In due course, we will announce names of other boxers that will feature on the bill in supporting fights,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
