Former World Champ Nozipho Bell Returns In WBF Intercontinental Clash
Nozipho Bell, the former World Boxing Federation (WBF) world Featherweight champion, returns on April 28 in Gquberha, South Africa, fighting for the vacant WBF Intercontinental Light Welterweight title.
Bell, 15-5-1 (5), will take on experienced Namibian-born Zimbabwean Chiedza Homakoma, 8-9-3 (4) on a show staged by Mbali Zantsi.
36-year-old Bell has been a top contender for most of her career, and besides winning the WBF world title in 2019 she has also challenged for WBO and IBO world titles abroad.
Also a former South African national champion and IBF Intercontinental titlist at Super Featherweight, she has now decided to move to Light Welter in pursuit of eventually becoming a world champion again.
“The Queen Tiger” Homakoma (32) always comes to fight, and after facing some of the best boxers Africa has to offer, she is motivated to upset the favourite.
Beating a former world champion and established name such as Bell would be a major breakthrough for her career, while Bell cant afford to lose if she is to regain former glory.
