Defending champions Kenya Police and Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) have taken an early lead after the first leg of the National Boxing League in Nakuru.

The policemen and the soldiers are tied on 22 at the end of the league championships held at Old Town Hall over the weekend.

Sombea Boxing Club, Nakuru’s newest kid on the block, finished third with 10 points to the chagrin of their opponents in the well officiated matches as the county starts to take its position in the past Kenya’s boxing trend.
