The Dambe Warriors League persevered despite the country’s preoccupation with politics and nationwide protests.
Season Three of the league concluded with great fanfare on a sunny day in Lagos, the entertainment capital of the world.
The event drew a crowd of approximately 5,000 enthusiastic fans, as well as influencers, media executives, and government officials. The world’s greatest Dambe warriors put on an exhilarating show.
Not only are the matchups now set for SuperFight 03 in Abuja at the Velodrome, but also the lowest-ranked Warriors have been relegated from the league.
Luckily, for those hundreds of thousands who couldn’t attend in person, Circuit Fight 15 was also available for viewing on AIT, Facebook Live, and YouTube.
The main event of the lightweight division did not disappoint with Yar Mage defeating Chindo by a score of 87-84. In the other divisional bouts, newcomer Nasarawa took down Kurma via an 88-85 victory, while Kudawa beat Zayyanu by TKO.
The stars of the middleweight division went blow for blow to the delight of the capacity crowd, but in the end, Shaaban came out on top against Zazu with a score of 114-112.
Elsewhere, Messi defeated Ramadan by TKO, as did Dan Nigeria over Yasanda. The middleweight SuperFight championship match is now set with rising stars Shaaban and Messi squaring off against each other.
