For ‘Boika’, Not Even the Sky Is the Limit
December 18, 2020
SEVEN days ago, new World Boxing Organization Africa welterweight champion Brendon “Boika” Denes wished for a quick closure to 2020, a year which he said he would rather forget quickly.
Of course, it’s a year everything came to a virtual standstill due to the Covid-19 pandemic, but it is some events, including his ban from boxing, which he wanted to put behind as quickly as possible.
The year has, however, rolled around beautifully for the 25-year- old after he defied the odds to wrestle the WBO Africa crown from holder Mikka Shonena of Namibia via a sixth round knock-out at the Windhoek Country Club last weekend.
