WINDHOEK – Explode at your own risk, the undisputed king of Namibian boxing, Harry "The Terminator" Simon, is back with a bang.
After being struck off, as was the case in local boxing circles, the former Walvis-Bay-born world champion seems to have lost none of his usual nostalgia and remembers the adorable professional boxer who has conquered the world of boxing with distinction.
At the dawn of his spotless boxing career, at age 44 to be precise, Simon brought boxing fans into the memories with a footwork punctuated by an incredible confidence in the fighter from the first whistle .
Simon added another award to his illustrious boxing career when he sent his Tanzanian opponent Kaminja Ramadhani Shabani to the land of death with his vicious left hook at the Ramatex complex, on the outskirts of Windhoek, the commercial capital of the Namibia last weekend.
Harry Simon Onkungo Promotions hosted the boxing-themed "Second Chance" boxing tournament Bonanza Boxing and the host did not disappoint, as he spoiled his opponent to push up his staggering record to 31 wins for the same number of fights since his arrival at the rank of paying player of the 90s.
Simon was as usual and minded his business that night, his opponent offering very little resistance, if any. The East African boxer found himself at the back of the ball while the Namibian picked up a nasty left hook that made him dizzy to seek medical attention – less than a minute after the start of the fight.
Like father, like son
Simon's eldest son, Harry Junior, was not to be outdone either, as he complimented his old man in an amazing way. The young boxer was found facing a Zimbabwean challenger, rewriting the story of a father and son who fought on the same card.
Despite his young age, Simon Jr, under the care of Nestor "Sunshine" Tobias, an internationally renowned boxing coach, had the best on the exchanges since he defeated the veteran opponent Meshack Kondwani, the Zimbabwean.
The young player showed impressive talent as he easily outclassed his more experienced opponent, forcing the referee to shorten the fight to prevent the others from blushing after two minutes and 13 seconds of leather trading.
In other fights, veteran Vikapita 'The Beast Master' Meroro confronted his Malawian opponent Mussa Ajibu.
The bulky Namibian who entered the hopeless battle beyond the allowable weight limit – weighing eight kilos (kg) more than his opponent – showed little enthusiasm with the two boxers fighting most of the time instead to exchange shots.
Meroro weighed 102.4 kg while Ajibu weighed 93.65 kg – changing the fight to Catch Weight instead of the Cruiser weight in which Meroro normally fights. Despite the weight problem, Meroro won the fight 79-73, 77-55 and 77-55 after eight rounds. boxing.
Paulus Amavila also beat his opponent Immanuel Jason in a Namibian fight as both boxers made their professional boxing debut in the 61.24kg lightweight category. Salantiel Moses defeated Samuel Nangolo after a split decision after the three judges scored 38-38, 38-39 and 38-39 in favor of Moses.
In another fight while in Namibia, Hedison 'Bulelo' Nghipondoka beat Daniel 'Open Fire' Kashela to points in one of the most entertaining fights of the night. The three judges scored 40-36, 40-36 and 39-37.
In another exciting fight of the night, Albino 'Dannyboy' Felesianu, a super-light boxer, beat Malawi's Limbani Chipaka to points after six rounds of boxing. The three judges scored the 59-55 fight in favor of the Swakopmund-based boxer. – Nampa
