Mosquito blames Manyuchi's handlers for loss in Singapore

Former Commonwealth flyweight boxing champion Alfonso Zvenyika, nicknamed Mosquito has blamed Charles Manyuchi’s trainers for his first round loss on Saturday. Manyuchi lost to Qudratillo “The Punisher” Abduqaxorov in Singapore.

While some have speculated that it could have been a fixed match, Zvenyika blamed overconfidence and inadequate preparation for the loss. Speaking to News Day Zvenyika said:

There were a lot of things that went wrong before and during the fight. Did Manyuchi prepare adequately for that fight? Did he approach the fight in a professional manner? I don’t think so.

…From the way he spoke in the build-up to the fight, you could see he was underrating his opponent. You don’t do that in boxing, there is no greater danger than underestimating your opponent in this sport.

That’s where your management team comes in. That’s where the coach needs to chip in and advise his boxer. You can’t start showboating in the first round. You can start doing that when you are very sure you have won. I think the coach was afraid to tell him what to do because he is a champion and the one who is making money for them.
