li NuumbembeAli Nuumbembe returned to Namibia in 2008 to resume his role as a captain in the Namibian Defence Force.  The popular Namibian was based in Glossop, Derbyshire, for five years - during which time he became the Commonwealth Welterweight Champion.


Paulus 'Ali' Nuumbembe
came to Britain from Namibia with his country's boxing team for the Commonwealth Games in Manchester in 2002.

2002 Games

When the team's kit was lost on the way to Manchester, boxing enthusiast Richard Parker donated new kit so they could take part in the games - where Ali scooped a bronze medal.

Ali lived in Richard's pub, the Beehive in Glossop, Derbyshire for four years before moving to a place of his own in the town. He trained under professional coach Bob Shannon and renowned boxing manager Steve Wood.

Ali had an outstanding amateur record. With 155 fights he had 144 wins, 11 defeats and 63 knockouts spanning a 10 year period.

Since turning professional in 2002 he has had 20 wins (7 KOs),  3 defeats and 1 draw.

Ali won the Commonwealth welterweight title from Kevin Anderson at the Fife Ice Centre in Kirkcaldy on February 16, 2007 but lost it to Mancunian southpaw Craig Watson in Wigan on December 8, 2007.
