Hastings Bwalya’s Seeks Third Win in NY Debut

Boxer Hasting Bwalya enters the ring this evening with an East Coast debut in New York City in his third professional fight.

The 24-year old will face 25-year-old Ashantie Hendrickson of the USA in a non-title welterweight bout over six rounds on an eight-fight bill at The Capitale.

Bwalya, on 2-0, is looking for his third successive win against Hendrickson who, at 2-6-0, enters the ring also seeking his third pro career win from nine fights.

The former African Amateur welterweight champions’ last two professional fights have both ended via knockout wins over Anthony McDavitt and Ivan Ibarra in the third and first round respectively. 

The Zambian boxers next fight will come on June 19 at the Niagara Falls Conference centre in Niagara Falls, New York State against a yet to be announced opponent.

  1. He helped Mayweather to prepare to sort out Mosley, now its his (Sting’s) turn to shine. Nayo nayo!

  2. Yeah that`s what am talking about.The sky is the limit, balwe mwana.I just wish you nothing but the best:-?

  3. Bwalya did a nice thing to move over USA. Keep it up- wish you good lucky-

  4. He is a true Zambian, however if he looses he will just be another congolese or Nigerian using the name of Zambia,

  5. I hope the fight will be shown on Friday night fights. We are behind you Hastings.

  6. How much is he being paid???? WE need to keep tracking these thing. hastings make money but remember do not end up as a destitute, promotors are crooks out there. See how Football players are ending up??? In South Africa after wasting their hard end money in Europe.

  7. #8 you are very right. These guys do a very hard and good job, but end up with no money to start up with when they go back home.
    Thanks
