Boxing gloves.By GWEN CHIPASULA –
ZAMTEL has weighed in with K250,000 towards Catherine Phiri’s World Boxing Council (WBC) bantamweight silver title fight against Christina McMahon set for May 2 at the Mulungushi International Conference Centre (MICC) in Lusaka.
Oriental Quarries Boxing Promotion (OQBP) manager Christopher Malunga said in a statement that the coming on board of Zamtel has left the organisers with a shortfall of K250, 000 to successfully host the bout.
Malunga said the boxing stable earlier received a combined sponsorship worth K180,000 from News Café and Karibu Investment Limited and that so far K513,000 from the K763,000 had been realised.
Malunga commended Zamtel for the support and for becoming the platinum sponsors and assured the mobile service provider that the money will all go towards staging a successful event.
