Isaac Chilemba to Fight on October 16

Isaac Chilemba is scheduled to fight on October 16 at the Carousel Casino in Hammanskraal, South Africa. The Malawi-born fighter has been based in South Africa throughout his career, but this will be his first fight in his adopted country in eleven and half years.

Chilemba (26-9-3, 10 KOs) has fought almost all of the best light heavyweights of his era. In his last two fights, he lost to two highly-touted super middleweight prospects. He last fought on May 27 against Osleys Iglesias in Poland. Since Chilemba last fought in South Africa, he has been a road warrior. In addition to Poland, Isaac has fought in the U.S., Canada, Russia, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Greece.

Earlier in the month, Chilemba said he would fight one of two more times. He has opened a gym in South Africa as he eyes retirement. No opponent has yet been announced for October 16.
