The highly anticipated Corporate boxing match between socialite Shakib Lutaaya aka Shakib Charm and media personality Junior 59Dave Kazoora aka JK has gained much weight after Chief Muzzukulu Hajjat Hadijah Namyalo boosted the fight with the purchase of tickets worth millions for President Museveni’s Bazzukulu.
The fight happening, Saturday, 12th October 2024 at the NCS Indoor Arena, Lugogo in Kampala, has already gained traction with many supporters taking sides between Zari the Boss lady’s hubby and the former NBS Media Personality.
“The day is Saturday. Let’s come and have fun as we witness who is who in this battle. These two are Museveni’s Bazzukulu and that’s why the President is now empowering the Ghettos to develop their talent,” Hajjat Namyalo remarked.
On his behalf, Shakib, known to be a man of very few words thanked Hajjat Hadijah Namyalo for boosting the match between him and Kazoora and said he is only counting hours to show his opponent what he is truly made of when he enters the ring.
J Kazoora who didn’t attend the meeting at Kyambogo used social media platforms to express readiness to take on Shakib in a bid to spread the boxing sport to more corporates.
“I am ready to face my younger brother in the three rounds of Corporate boxing. The idea is very key to growing this sport. I have been training well and so is Shakib,” Kazoora said.
“Boxing as a sport is very unique. Boxers are very, very disciplined persons. I have a special love for boxing. I want to leave a mark. I am into boxing. Local fighters earn little money during fights and I believe this should improve,” he added.
JK emphasized that the fight with Shakib is not about money but also for health purposes. “My weight has gone down from 100Kgs to 90kgs in just weeks. So, it helps in terms of your health. It pushes you to train hard to be ready for the fight. We are happy that we have opened doors for celebrity boxing because we shall have more bouts in the coming weeks. More celebrities are coming up to challenge me,” he said.
The fight between Shakib and J Kazoora is sponsored by Bwinbet Uganda in partnership with the Uganda Boxing Federation (UBF) who will on the night unveil the Boxing Champions League for the new season.
