Zambia’s MMA Team Gears Up for IMMAF World Championships with 1xBet Sponsorship

Zambia’s Road to the IMMAF World Championships

Earlier this year, Team Zambia achieved remarkable success at the IMMAF Africa Championships, winning one gold and two silver medals.

These victories qualified the athletes for the IMMAF World Championships, where they will face some of the world’s top fighters from November 5 to 11, 2024.

Thanks to 1xBet’s sponsorship, which covered most travel and accommodation costs and provided branded sportswear, the team can focus entirely on their preparation and performance.

Gilbert Ndlovu, who earned a gold medal at the Africa Championship, remains focused on his physical conditioning and refining his techniques. “My main goal is to bring home a gold medal and valuable experience to enhance my future career,” Ndlovu shared, expressing deep pride in representing Zambia.

His gratitude toward 1xBet for supporting his journey was evident, as he emphasized his dedication to making Zambia proud on the international stage.

Miracle Chipito: Prepared for Redemption

Silver medalist Miracle Chipito sees the upcoming championship as an opportunity to redeem himself after a controversial decision in his final match at the Africa Championships. “This championship brings together the best fighters on the planet, which makes it unique in terms of competition,” he stated.

Chipito is particularly appreciative of 1xBet’s support, which he feels strengthens his resolve to proudly represent Zambia and the brand supporting them.

Abraham Banda: Honored to Represent Zambia

Abraham Banda, another silver medalist, views the chance to represent Zambia at a major international event as an incredible honor. Reflecting on his previous experience at the Africa Championships, he noted how the lessons he learned have made him a stronger and smarter competitor.

“The support of 1xBet and the fans fuels my drive,” Banda said, highlighting how this encouragement motivates him to give his best in the ring.

Coach Benjamin Bush: Confidence Through Support

Benjamin Bush, Team Zambia’s head coach, recounted Zambia’s journey in the sport, from humble beginnings to gaining a reputation for producing strong, disciplined fighters. With 1xBet’s backing, Bush feels confident that his team is ready to face the world’s best.

“Knowing that we have the support of 1xBet, a world-known brand, gives us confidence,” he remarked, adding that the team’s spirit and preparation will help them overcome even the toughest opponents.
