African and national Kick Boxing Champion Severin Mamonjisoa defeated Russian World Champion Zurab Faroyan in the 60 kg category this past weekend in Sochi Russia to become the country’s first ever world champion in that event.
Mamonjisoa who came to the event was already African and Indian Ocean Champion as well as national champion faced formidable odds as he locked horns with multiple world championship winner in Faroyan. But that would not deter the Malagasy Champion who would go on to win the title.
