Both affirmed their status among the world's best in this grueling battle, but it was Achieng who surprised, mixing in movement and boxing ability to go along with her athleticism and brawling style.

Achieng dominated the fight from the second round till the tenth, her versatility proved to be the difference as she became the new Commonwealth (British Empire) Super Light Weight Champion by scores of 100 - 80, 98 - 92 and 100 - 90.

Kenya Proffesional Boxing Commission (KPBC) President Reuben Ndolo said the two belts to be contested on Friday night have been fully sanctioned by the KPBC and their corresponding international bodies.

"I urge Kenyans to turn up in large numbers to watch these world class fights because the boxers involved are very much competent," Ndolo said.

There will be other seven curtain raiser bouts ahead of the title fights.
