Where is the Heavyweight Title of Fiji belt?

That’s what boxing fans have been asking since Saturday night after James “The Beast” Singh knocked out Jonasa Kavika for the title.

Singh won the fight but didn’t get the belt because the Boxing Commission of Fiji did not bring it.

There were chaotic scenes at Lawaqa Park on Saturday with Police moving into the ring to control supporters who were calling for answers after the bout.

South Pacific Boxing promoter, Fredy Chand says he has spoken with the Chairman of the Boxing Commission and they are still trying to locate the belt.

Chand adds that an investigation should be done on why the belt was not at Lawaqa Park and those people that are behind this should be taken to task.
