Esther Phiri has added the Global Boxing Union (GBU) Intercontinental Super Featherweight title to her honors after a 2nd round technical knockout win over Rodostina Valcheva of Bulgaria at Woodlands stadium on Saturday night.
The title was the second in a space of three months for Phiri after lifting the World International Boxing Federation Super Featherweight crown on March 18 in Lusaka against another Bulgaria Monika Petrova.
In Saturday’s fight for the until then vacant GBU belt, Valcheva retired late in the second round after dislocating her right elbow as Phiri led both rounds.
The Bulgaria was a late replacement for compatriot Gelina Ivanova who pulled out of the bout due to an ankle injury.
Phiri’s win was her sixth professional victory from 10 fights since turning pro two years ago.
The TKO was her first bout not to go the distance since knocking out Patience Master of Zimbabwe on May 27, 2006 in Harare.
Phiri’s next fight is scheduled for December in Lusaka before Christmas.
Her trainer and manager Anthony Mwamba revealed today that Phiri had two potential challengers for the December fight.
Mwamba said Phiri might fight a boxer from either the Czech Republic or USA and that fight dates and details would be confirmed before September.
Mwamba however, could not say whether the December date would be World title or non-title fight.
Phiri and Mwamba next month leave for the USA on a six-week holiday training camp before returning home in September.
The boxer meanwhile is taking a two week break after Saturdays GBU title triumph starting this week before returning to the gym.

Good job to you Esther. But people like ba anonymous #3 and 4 are the biggest jakes on this blog. They think just but dirty and no development. Wake up and be men.
Ester, when the sun is still bright it is time to invest any benefits of your sweat. You can’t go wrong when you invest in real estates. Always remember a time always comes when the shines no more. well done!!
Esther job well done, but remember a coin has to sides on one side Lottie Mwale and on the opposite side Ali Muhammed. You are living hero turn yourself in legend. Planing and proactive should be your routine. Remember the bible say use your talent, the fact is sport career is temporary appearance and stars are born everyday. Keep it up dont rush to go America fight at home you have home ground advantage. Make your holidays there but dont go fighting there yet.

Kuku#51. It was the devil at its work. I just cut Anonymus from Plagarism. Just check the arhives he has been committing copy and paste. So decided to end this by reporting directly from the game. He now jobless that is what made him insane. I think he smokes opioum from the Taleban. Sometime you people can find the unknown. All what I need is programme my laptop and answer any nonsense from Kayata, Anonymus and other. How did you find the match?
The match was okay, being the first one the lads tried we hope to see better performance in the next one.Coaches please inspire the young boys.
