According to New Dawn Boxing Promotions (NDBP) director Mike Chimaliza, Mwenda dominated the first two of an eight-round bout before losing the grip for Mwamaso to dominate in the remaining rounds.

“However, there was drama in the supporting bout that saw little-known Mzuzu-based Laston Kayira defeating Malani Kayuni on technical knockout [TKO] in round five. People chanted Kayira’s name as he displayed rare skills,” Chimaliza said.

Chimaliza said following his victory, Kayira has been offered a title bout against Wilson Masamba in December. The fight will be organised by No Pain No Gain. n
