A provisional squad of 28 Kenyan boxers have been named to start preparations for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics qualifiers slated for Senegal in February next year.
The fighters were selected after the final round of the Boxing Federation of Kenya league that ended in Kisumu over the weekend. The team is made up largely of fighters who represented Kenya at the All African Games in Morocco earlier in the year.
Kenya Police dominates the list after they claimed yet another league title on Sunday. Police won nine of their 11 bouts in the Millenium City. The highlight of Police’s victories was the win in the heavyweight category where international boxer, Elly Ajowi beat Kibra’s Joshua Wasike via unanimous decision.
