Orthodox stance boxer Farahat Manirola, also known as “King Falat The Nightmare,” has marked his debut in the Uganda Boxing Champions League with a resounding and dominant victory over Julius Kaddu.

The bout, held at Club Obligato in Kampala on Saturday, May 3rd, 2025, saw Manirola of Lukanga Boxing Club win unanimously 5:0 against Kaddu of Katabi Boxing Club in the Elite category (63.5Kgs).

Despite dropping to amateur boxing, Manirola boasts an impressive professional record, having won eight of his ten bouts with two knockouts.

The talented boxer made his professional debut in April 2022 with a win against Isaac Sseguya and had his last bout in the pro-ranks on April 26th, 2025, against Tanzanian National Ayub Mwankina.

In other exciting matches at the Uganda Boxing Champions League, Nerrick Tumusiime “Bulabe” of Kololo High School Boxing Club emerged victorious in the main event, knocking out Ashraf Mutaasa of Kibuli Mutajjazi in the first round.

The highly anticipated bout in the 71Kgs category was short-lived packed action and will go down in history as one of the most thrilling encounters.

Other notable wins included Innocent Amoko (UPDF BC) who unanimously won 5:0 against Muleme Denis (Cobap BC) in the Elite (63.5Kgs), and Kassim Murungi (East Coast BC) who registered a 5:0 unanimous victory against Leon Kiggundu (Lukanga BC) in the Elite 57Kgs category.
