▪️ It’s redemption time for Shaffi following an indifferent performance in his recent fights
7/11/2025
The bantamweight rematch between long-serving international Shaffi Bakari of Police and KDF’s Dennis Muthama is the highlight of today’s semi-finals of the Kenya National League 4th leg at Nanyuki Social Hall.
Muthama outpointed Shaffi in the second leg of the league in Kenya’s Coastal town of Mombasa.
Coupled with his quarter-finals loss in the Africa Zone 3 Championships in Nairobi, Shaffi must redeem himself today otherwise Muthama will take over the bantamweight division.
Muthama, a gold medallist in the Africa Military Games in Abuja, is ambitious to dethrone Shaffi who has been representing the national team from 2017 but now finds himself in a very tight corner to convince the selectors he’s still worth his salt.
A smooth operator in the ring, Shaffi, a silver medallist in the 2019 African Games, is capable of turning the tables with more aggression
