Stars display their title credentials

African Stars displayed their title credentials with an emphatic 2-0 victory against Tigers on Friday night. After an even first half of few chances, Stars stepped up the pace and second half goals by Ninja Karongee and Ronald Ketjijere ensured their victory.

The victory put Stars four points clear of Pirates at the top of the log, although Orlando Piraters have a game in hand, against Oshakati City on Saturday.

A lot had been expected from fourth placed Tigers, but they were no match for Stars, who on this display look like odds on favourites to retain their title.

WBA orders Moses to fight Acosta

Paulus Moses

Paulus “The Hitman” Moses’ long awaited title defence has been delayed by another month after the World Boxing Association stepped into the fray and ordered that Moses defend his title against Miguel Acosta of Venezuela on 19 March. The 31-year-old Acosta is the WBA’s interim lightweight champion and a mandatory challenger for Moses’ title.

Moses was last in action on 25 July 2009 when he successfully defended his title against Takehiro Shimada of Japan with a unanimous points victory over 12 rounds.
