Ugandan kick-boxer Ronald Mugula has defeated Hungarian Andras Nagy in the second round of their Mauy Thai super welterweight world title fight at Kyadondo rugby ground.
Nagy seemed to be set for another victory over Ugandan opposition when he knocked Mugula down in the first round.
Mugula and Naggy before the fight
But the Uganda came strongly in the second round and injected Nagy with punches and kicks that made the Hungarian bleed and fail to recover after he fell to the ground.
Motor mouthed Moses Golola who lost to Andras Nagy earlier this year was the happiest man on the evening jubilating like he had won a lottery.
Mugula improved on his record to 43 wins in his 59 fights to make many Ugandans happy for the sporting victory. The German based Ugandan had earlier predicted he would defeat Nagy in the second round and many Ugandans were anxious not to have another loss after Golola lost having promised to easily defeat the not so talkative Hungarian.
“He is a good fighter but I have prepared myself. He will go down in the second round,” Mugula assured the nation shortly before his weigh-in on Thursday.
Mugula delivered with his 23rd knockout that gave him the international title. Some spectators were however disappointed that Nagy was defeated so easily as they had paid to watch what many thought was a long fight between two quality contenders.
