Catherine Phiri has a new opponent for her November, 22 WBC bantamweight silver title defence following the withdrawal of South Korean Hee-Jung Yuh.
Jung withdrew from the bout citing the Ebola epidemic that has hit West Africa- and not Zambia.
WBC international secretary for Africa Nelson Sapi said Catherine will now face Bukiwe Nonina of South Africa.
“Nonina is a credible boxer and is the current South African bantamweight champion, she is ranked 26th globally among 114 boxers. We believe she will give Catherine a good run,” Sapi said.
The 23-year-old South African has six wins, and two defeats.
Two of her six wins have been knockouts.
Catherine meanwhile heads into her tenth fight still undefeated with nine straight wins and four knockouts.
Why not give her Mushota
Mushota can be bitten lino out…this crazy young man cann’t be a good opponent for Phiri he is just a bad breath
Cathy:
All things work out for the good of them that love him (the Lord).
I personally would have loved you to fight the Korean—I’m not comfortable watching you fighting neighbouring opponents: however, I still acknowledge the change of events.
You’re a perfect sports woman; capable of juggling school and sport. Your discipline is exceptional.
Train even harder! I’m looking forward to your fight.
Hey, Cathy, did you see how people love you in Kitwe?
God bless you pretty young lady.
@Katewa , if think that was not a comment but a LOVE letter
@Nostradamus,
I know you for rough comments; but today you have made my day.
It’s my birth right: she is from the East; I’m from the North.
I have the right to spoil my Ngoni babes.
God bless you.
Hihihihihi…… You got to love Zambians with their sense of humor, ati Ebola Jung! Just imagine fatigued plus the unknown fear of contracting Ebola, she would be knocked out in a zero second just at the sight of Catherine in the devil’s boxing attire!
These koreans are very illiterate.They dont know anything outside korea.Its such a shame.
But they are beautiful. Try to sleep with one of them, you will feel their tenderness.
Yes Nostradamus very correct with a palm tree sharped like Virgin. with a bit of mavuzi pulled on top of the Kanyolity
Nostradamus and MKV: Don’t spoil the young man. Its better that he doesn’t find out.
