    A worthy challenger for super bantamweight boxer Mea Motu - just the way her coach likes it

    A worthy challenger for super bantamweight boxer Mea Motu - just the way her coach likes it


    The IBO champion will defend her belt against Malawi's Ellen Simwaka in Auckland on August 26.

    Motu's trainer Isaac Peach says Simwaka is no slouch.



    Compatriot Lani Daniels will defend her IBF heavyweight belt on the same card, while Motu's Peach Boxing teammate Jerome Pampellone looks to move a step closer to the light heavyweight world title.
