Kenya’s Christine Ongare defeated Uganda’s Catherine Nanziri at the Africa Boxing Olympics qualifiers in Dakar, Senegal to book her place at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.
Ongare, who became a mom at the tender age of 12, out-boxed the skillful Ugandan, winning eventually by unanimous points decision.
The commonwealth bronze-medalist beat the Ugandan in the Box-Off Women’s Flyweight category to join Niko Okoth, the other Kenyan boxer who has qualified for the Olympic Games.
