JESSE JACKSON KAURAISANamibia's bantamweight boxing sensation Paulus 'El Jesus' Ambunda aims to claim the World Boxing Council (WBC) world title.The former WBO bantamweight world champion won the WBC international title when he defeated Tanzania's Nasibu Ramadhan at the Desert Rumble boxing bonanza held in Swakopmund in December. Ambunda, who joined the Salute Boxing Academy from the MTC Nestor 'Sunshine' Tobias Academy last year, said he always dreamed of winning the WBC belt. “Winning the WBC belt was always a dream I wanted to achieve and now I have finally done that.“I made history by being the first person to bring this belt to Namibia.“Right now, I want to focus on bigger things like winning the WBC bantamweight world title,” Ambunda said.Ambunda now has two months in which he must defend his WBC title.The academy stated that they would like Ambunda to defend the title sooner though.“He is in great shape and it would just be nice if he could actually defend the title sooner.“We want him to move faster so that he can fight for the world title because we know that he is a very good boxer.“I promised Namibia that Salute was going to be a very successful stable and now the results are showing,” Salute's chairman Kiriata Kamanya said. The Namibian boxer now holds a record of 28 professional fights with 26 wins and two losses.
