Botswana Boxing Association held the national championships on Saturday PIC: KENNEDY RAMOKONE

This year has been nothing but pain for Lobatse-based boxing club, Mafika. Their season was marred by deaths of boxers and their relatives, particularly in the case of Rajab Muhammed Otukile, who lost his mother while his brother was murdered.

To make matters worse, his coach, Keleagetse Ntong also lost a child in a car accident. All the pain was healed by happiness when Mafika won the Botswana Boxing Association (BoBA) national championship held over the weekend in Gaborone.
