LIGHTWEIGHT Foster Kimuli had to sweat to overcome Lugave’s Tebusweke Mugezi to keep Ffumbe in charge at the Bika boxing championship at Lugogo yesterday.

Kimuli started the quarterfinal contest in slow fashion before he got his rhythm. He released powerful body shots in round three, forcing his opponent on the back foot to win 2-1 on points.

The defending champions got a setback when featherweight Amuza Lubwama identified himself as ‘Abby Kigozi’ and was disqualified.

The CBS FM sponsored annual event enters the semi-finals in the novice category today.
