WATCH: Nerrick Tumusiime Stuns Broline Kimbugwe In Season 3 Opener

Watch main fight here:

Nerrick Tumusiime delivered a stunning performance to defeat Broline Kimbugwe in the light middleweight division as Season Three of the Uganda Boxing Champions League kicked off on Saturday at the Lugogo Indoor Arena.

Making his debut in the league, Tumusiime had confidently predicted victory during Friday’s face-off, calling the fight his ‘wedding day’ and promising to deliver.

He lived up to his words, securing a decisive 5-0 unanimous decision from the judges.

This was Tumusiime’s first fight since his controversial win over Owen Kibira in the National Open final, a match that many believed Kibira had won.

However, Tumusiime left no room for doubt on Saturday, with his disciplined and strategic approach winning over both the judges and the audience.

In a departure from his usual aggressive style, Tumusiime displayed remarkable composure and tactical precision, focusing on scoring points rather than making reckless attacks.

Kimbugwe, who was favored to win following his runner-up finish last season after losing to Muzamir Ssemuddu, could not find an answer to Tumusiime’s controlled performance.
