Veteran Kadongo Kamu singer Lord Fred Sebata has taken a trip down memory lane, recalling his youthful days as a boxer and revealing just how formidable he was.
Sebata, claimed that his punches were so powerful that they were measured at an astonishing 35kg during weighing exercises.
While reflecting on his past, the legendary singer explained that boxers would have their punches tested to determine the force behind their blows, and he emerged as a heavyweight puncher.
“They used to weigh us and get to know the weight of the punch someone throws. Mine weighed 35kg, and I was not a joking subject.”
According to Sebata, his boxing skills also came in handy during his music career, particularly whenever chaos erupted at events where he and his colleagues had travelled to perform.
He said he would often personally intervene whenever rowdy individuals attempted to disrupt their shows, using his intimidating physical presence to restore order.
“Back then, I would always manhandle any individual who tried to cause chaos at events and shows where we travelled to perform. I would bring the situation back to calm.”
Sebata recalled how he would grab troublemakers by their T-shirt collars, and they would start pleading with him before escorting them out of the venue.
