Uganda’s Moses Golola has warned his forthcoming opponent Emmanuel Shija of Tanzania to come ready to be beaten.
The two kick boxers face off in the East and Central Africa Kick Boxing fight dubbed ‘best of the best’ of the region at Crested Cranes Hotel in Jinja on Friday November 14.
Golola who is camping in Mabira forest at the Forest Eco Tourism Centre told Kawowo Sports that Shija must be wary because this is a fight he will lose by all means.
“Emmanuel (Shija) stand warned. This is a fight I can’t afford to lose even when am dead asleep,” he added.
Golola has in the previous bouts disappointed against international fighters but he said that was in the old days and went further to relate this to the Bible which has both the new and old testaments.
The losses I suffered where in the ‘Old Testament’ but this is a ‘New Testament’ with a branded new Golola Moses. I want to regain my mojo and that must start against this Tanzanian.
On why he took the training to Mabira Forest of all places, Golola said it’s meant to give him maximum concentration.
I discovered that such an area will help give me maximum concentration. I live him leopards, monkeys and hippos among others and I love it. Everything is natural here and I love it.
The fight will be the first of its kind organized out Kampala and Wakiso District and the motor mouthed star says.
I have a dream to move kick boxing to all parts of Uganda. The one in Jinja will be the first on the long list of my fights to be held in upcountry. My people in Jinja will also have an opportunity to see the ‘Real Golola Moses’ and hopefully, I will inspire a few kids to become like me in future.
Golola has had 23 career fights winning 8, 11 Knock Outs and 4 losses while Shija; The Champion of Tanzania has 28 fights with just 3 losses and no draws.
