Desert Storm to light up December

The event, titled 'Desert Storm in Action', will take place at the Windhoek Country Club and general tickets sell for N$200 while a VIP table sells for N$10 000. Sakaria Lukas, Jeremiah Nakathila and Harry Simon Jnr will top the bill and according to promoter Nestor Tobias, they are all ready to deliver. “From my point of view on preparations, it is clear that Sakaria 'Desert Storm' Lukas, Jeremiah 'Low Key' Nakathila and the young Harry Simon Jnr are certainly more than ready to do battle as they all looked in great shape and spirits to end the year on a high,” he said. There will be two WBO regional titles on the line with both Lukas and Nakathila defending their respective WBO Featherweight and Jnr Lightweight Africa titles against two tough South African opponents. Lukas said he is honoured to headline the main event of the night and even more honoured to have it named after him. “This is going to be a big night for me against another champion and the most important fight given my current world ratings. I am more than prepared and would like to thank the team behind me for setting me up for greatness and I promise nothing but a win on the night against Tello.” Jeremiah Nakathila, who recently swapped nicknames from 'No Respect' to 'Low Key', said he needs to do justice to this change by winning the fight and doing so in style. “It's all about hard work and dedication, what we do behind the scenes and all the work and hours we put in, what you see on the night is just a result of all that and I promise to do well and keep on winning,” said Nakathila. Many will look forward to see the young Simon Jnr in his fourth professional fight. “I am looking forward to this fight and I can feel myself growing and making good progress under MTC Sunshine Promotions. I am taking things easy and not putting any unnecessary pressure on myself, I will step in the ring and focus only on winning because that is all that matters”. He also said that training has been going well and his eyes are set on winning. The young boxer also urged boxing fans to turn up in numbers as they conclude the year in style. Tickets are available from Computicket, MTC Nestor Sunshine boxing office and Antonio's Art shop in Post Street Mall. The event will see six other exciting undercards which will be announced in due course. LIMBA MUPETAMI
