The international arena has always been a good hunting ground for Tangata, who has represented the nation with distinction on many occasions. With the world championships scheduled for Turkey next month fast approaching, Tangata last week used the Great North 3 Tournament in South Africa to gauge his progress ahead of the global kickboxing showcase. The national champion as expected did not disappoint, after winning a silver medal. The distinguished kickboxer says finishing second was a big moral booster as the world championship draws nearer. Zimbabwe Kickboxing Association President, Tony Kamangira hailed Tangata as the ultimate fighter who is set to fly the country’s flag high at the world championships.
