Kenyan boxers are confident of winning the overall title at the upcoming Africa Zone Three Boxing Championships in Nairobi, less than four weeks away. This confidence comes after rigorous training and past victories against opponents, with the team preparing to showcase their skills at the upcoming National Boxing League in Nakuru next week.

• Edwin Okong’o, Africa Games middleweight gold medallist, expressed certainty in securing an overall victory at home.
• Kenya is expected to field two teams as hosts, similar to Democratic Republic of Congo in 2023, providing more local exposure for pugilists.
• Bantamweight Shaffi Bakari, a silver medallist in Kinshasa two years ago, is prioritizing the league championships to open doors for future international assignments.
