Jumoke Adenowo, Darcy Zotter and Tumi Frazier to Headline the
2018 When Women Win Experience
When Women Win (WWW) has announced that award winning
Architect, Entrepreneur and Philanthropist Jumoke Adenowo, the U.S. Consulate’s Head of Public Affairs, Darcy Zotter and the South African Director of the Global Women’s
Initiative, Tumi Frazier will be headlining its debut When Women Win Experience
scheduled to take place on Friday, the 9th of March, 2018 simultaneously at the Oriental
Hotel in Victoria Island, Lagos and the CBN Training Institute, Abuja.
When Women Win (WWW) is a new initiative set to be a platform to enable women;
helping them discover themselves, be motivated and coached to reach their maximum
potential while also celebrating and advocating for women. The upcoming 2018 When
Women Win Experience which holds the week of International Women’s Day, will also
be the official launch of the initiative in Africa.
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 5 speaks of empowering women and
achieving equality as key to the development of Africa. The issue of inequality cuts
across all sectors of the society including education, politics and governance. This is
evidenced by the fact that although women make up 49.6% of the world’s population,
female world leaders/presidents are less than 10% of recognized world leaders.
When Women Win (WWW) is set to address this challenge by providing affordable
access for women to the knowledge, inspiration and opportunities they need to rise
above any challenges or limitations, reach for their dreams and succeed in whatever
field they want to. The core principle behind this is that when more women are
empowered, they can become better contributors to our economic development
“When Women Win, Families win, Communities win, Corporations win and
ultimately the Nation wins.” – Tumi Frazier, South African Director, Global
Women’s Initiative.
At the 2018 When Women Win Experience, themed Reach for the Stars, speakers and
performers from across Africa will inspire and teach participants through talks, music,
spoken word, training and coaching classes. Although the event is scheduled to take place
in Lagos, it will also be broadcast live to a viewing audience in Abuja. Entry to the event

Oleksandr Usyk Defeats Tyson Fury Again, Solidifies Legacy Among Boxing Greats

Oleksandr Usyk Defeats Tyson Fury Again, Solidifies Legacy Among Boxing Greats

Ukrainian boxing sensation Oleksandr Usyk retained his heavyweight championship titles and cemented his place in boxing history with a unanimous decision victory over Britain’s Tyson Fury in their rematch on Saturday night.

The judges scored the bout 116-112 in Usyk’s favor across the board, marking his second consecutive win over Fury. This victory extended Usyk’s flawless professional record to 23-0, with 14 knockouts, adding another chapter to a career already highlighted by Olympic gold and an undisputed cruiserweight championship.

A Masterclass Performance

Usyk, 37, showcased his signature precision and relentless pace, repeatedly catching Fury with clean left hooks and dominating the latter stages of the fight. Fury, at 6ft 9in (206cm) and weighing a career-high 281 pounds, attempted to impose his physicality but was unable to break Usyk’s composure.

The fight, held in Saudi Arabia, saw Usyk wearing traditional Cossack attire during his entrance, while Fury entered the arena dressed in a festive Santa-inspired robe to Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You.”

The early rounds were competitive, with Fury landing powerful jabs and body shots. However, Usyk’s endurance and tactical brilliance began to shine in the middle rounds. The Ukrainian landed sharp combinations and dictated the tempo, including a stunning uppercut in the final round that left little doubt about the outcome.

“I thought I’ve won both fights,” Fury said post-match, sporting a bruised right eye. “But I’ll always believe until the day I die that I won that fight.”

A Legacy Sealed

Usyk’s victory solidified his standing as one of the greatest heavyweights in history. Already the first undisputed heavyweight of the four-belt era, Usyk joins the ranks of legends like Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis, and Mike Tyson.

The bout, reported to have a prize purse of $190 million, also underscored Saudi Arabia’s growing influence in global sports. Usyk, who served briefly as a soldier during Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, celebrated his victory by hoisting a symbolic sabre belonging to Ukrainian nationalist hero Ivan Mazepa.

Fury’s Uncertain Future

The defeat leaves Fury’s future in doubt. Once unbeaten across 35 fights, Fury now stands at 34-2-1. His attempt to reclaim glory after a brief retirement in 2022 has been marred by back-to-back losses to Usyk.

Usyk, on the other hand, continues to add to his already remarkable resume, leaving fans and critics alike in awe of his technical skill, resilience, and determination. As the heavyweight division looks ahead, Usyk’s reign appears unshakable, and his place among boxing’s all-time greats is firmly secured.
