Breaking: Manyuchi Told To Shed 200g Weight In Two Hours

Zimbabwe International boxer, Charles Manyuchi’s tomorrow fight with Argentine Diago Gallardo is hanging in the balance after he was told to shed 200g excess weight which disqualifies him for the middleweight limit.

According to the World Boxing Federation (WBF), the middleweight limit is 72.575kgs and Manyuchi weighed 72.9kg

The match is scheduled for the Harare International Conference Centre this Saturday but if Manyuchi fails to meet the required weight, it might be called off.

Gallardo was in-weight and he is relaxing along with officials from the WBF at a Harare hotel. In the meantime, Manyuchi is already undergoing some weight-shedding activities under the watchful eyes of his coach Ali Phiri.

The Argentine is the current holder of the WBF title which they are fighting for.
