Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>Salute Boxing Academy has accused AC Boxing and Promotions of making false claims, disseminating misleading information, making false accusations, fabricating statistics, and making derogatory remarks about their boxer Nathanael Kakololo through the media.<\/p>\n

In a letter signed by Kriata Kamanya, the owner of Salute Boxing Academy and Promotions, and seen by this publication, it says Moses has five working days to retract and apologise for his media comments pertaining to a suggested fight between fighters from the two boxing stables.<\/p>\n

In a recent media conference event, Moses said his boxer, Flame \u2018Special One\u2019 Nangolo, was highly ranked in Namibia and the world than Kakololo, and his stable had sent out an offer to Kakololo for a boxing fight in October against Nangolo.<\/p>\n

In a social media post, Moses declared, \u201cAs promised to the media and boxing fans. . . offer has been made in writing to Natty Kakololo this morning through MTC<\/p>\n

Salute Boxing. Now we are waiting for the response on Monday 21 August. You can run, but you can\u2019t hide! Smoke season. #SpecialonNatty @mtcsaluteboxing @MTCNamibia @sportnbc.<\/p>\n

\u201d This did not sit well with Salute Boxing, which issued AC Boxing with a cease and desist order.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese unfounded and malicious statements are not only damaging to MTC Salute Boxing Academy\u2019s reputation, but also potentially detrimental to the career and image of Nathanael Kakololo.<\/p>\n

Such actions not only violate the principles of fair competition and sportsmanship, but also have the potential to incite unnecessary controversy and conflict within the boxing community,\u201d the statement from Salute read.<\/p>\n

Salute acknowledged that boxing rivalries exist, but warned that they should be conducted in a respectful and ethical manner, upholding the integrity of the sport and ensuring the well-being of the athletes involved.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hereby demand that you take immediate action to rectify this situation by: removing all defamatory statements about MTC Salute Boxing Academy from your social media accounts, including any associated comments or shares.<\/p>\n

Issue a formal public retraction of the defamatory statements, making it clear that the statements were false and that you regret any harm they may have caused to MTC Salute Boxing Academy,\u201d the statement read.<\/p>\n

Salute says they are aggravated by the fact that AC Boxing approached the media and discussed the details of a boxing match without first securing a formal agreement with the intended opponent from their stable.<\/p>\n

\u201cSuch actions demonstrate a lack of respect for the integrity of the sport and the fundamental principles of fair competition.<\/p>\n

However, the Salute Boxing Academy would like to reiterate that we have no problem engaging with other promoters to secure fights for our boxers, provided that things are done procedurally,\u201d their statement continued.<\/p>\n

On his part, Moses wrote to Kamanya yesterday, saying their aim is to make sure the fight happens without tarnishing anyone\u2019s image. \u201cIt is natural and a tradition for boxers to call each other publicly without any agreements in place, not only in Namibia but worldwide.<\/p>\n

This is a simple callout, nothing personal. As for your legal threats, I do not see any wrongdoing on my part,\u201d Moses responded. When contacted by New Era Sport to confirm the offer for the fight, Moses confirmed that he indeed sent a letter to Salute Boxing before making the public declarations.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe two boxers engaged each other, as a promoter I made an offer to the other boxer\u2019s stable.<\/p>\n

Why can\u2019t they respond to the offer? If they do not want to fight on our card, they can make us an offer, we will take it. As for the legal threat, they can go to court.<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t fight our battles in court, we fight on the ring,\u201d Moses said. He added that he never said the fight was confirmed, but that only an offer had been made. He, however, refused to divulge the total package, saying it was a substantial package that remained private between the two rival boxing stables.<\/p>\n
