			On December 8, former Commonwealth Welterweight champion Joshua 'Poison' Onyango won a 3rd round KO against Ugandan Billy 'the beast' Kizito to claim the vacant Universal Boxing Organisation (UBO) international welterweight title at Nyayo Stadium Gymnasium on a card promoted by Atomic Bunde of Timebomb Promotions. Joshua was fighting for the first time at home in five years. He is currently based in the US.



			Onyango walked into a right hook from the Ugandan and went down in the first round. The former commonwealth champion beat the count and came back into the game resoundingly making his presence felt and at the same time using his guard well to neutralise the hard hitting Ugandan's punches.



			The second round was an evenly contested bout, both boxers taking the game to each other, although Onyango seemed to be fighting more cautiously, of course not wanting another knock. In the middle of the third round, Onyango had put up the pressure against the Ugandan with accurate body punches that seemed to have their effect on his opponent. One such right to Kizito's ribs was followed by an accurate left to the jaw that had Kizito sprawled on the canvas, face fast. Referee Vedo Okumu counted out Kizito and stopped the fight.



			'I was not in a great hurry in the first round' Onyango said ' I was trying to find my range. I usually start my onslaught in the middle rounds'



			The new champion however acknowledged his opponents abilities ' He is a hard hitter and is a very strong with his hooks. He is awkward in his style and that makes it hard for me to put their punches together'



			Onyango improves to 14 wins (KO 12) and 14 losses
