KENYA will have only two boxers at the Olympic Games in Athens after the ‘Hit Squad' returned from the African boxing championships in Botswana empty handed despite entering three boxers for the showcase that saw neighbouring Uganda send two more pugilists.

The team, coached by Albert Matito, failed miserably to secure olympic slots in the event held in Gaborone in Botswana last week.

Kenya will be represented by Suleiman Bilali (l/fly) and David Munyasia (bantam). The duo qualified earlier.
