The boxing showdown is slated for Windhoek Country Club on the weekend of October 8 and will be headlined by Namibia’s veteran pugilist and WBO Africa Lightweight crown holder Paulus ‘The Hitman’ Moses, who will defend his title against Tanzanian opponent Cosmos Checka.
For the title fight, the WBO appointed independent and competent judges registered with the organisation to supervise and help ensure the smooth running of all proceedings on the night of October 8.
