Digital creator and comedian Chebet Ronoh is set to face fellow content creator Sheila Kiguta in what organisers describe as Kenya’s first female celebrity boxing match.

The proposed bout is expected to feature at Celebrity Fight Nights 3.0, the latest edition of Nairobi’s growing celebrity boxing series.

Organisers announced the matchup on social media, describing it as a historic showdown between two popular online personalities.

Other personalities named on the fight card include Barak Jacuzzi, Alfayo Siwo, Brahim, ActuallyLumu, Peng and Eddie Grey.

Celebrity Fight Nights debuted in November 2025 as Kenya’s first celebrity boxing event. It was created by HustleSasa in partnership with rapper and entertainer Barak Jacuzzi, bringing entertainers, media personalities and content creators into the ring for exhibition bouts.

The inaugural event was held at The Alchemist in Westlands, Nairobi, where Barak Jacuzzi defeated content creator Lumu in one of the headline fights.

The event returned for its second edition on June 28, 2026, also at The Alchemist. Barak Jacuzzi faced rapper Benzema in the headline bout, while actor Brahim Ouma took on DJ and producer MackLean.

Barak Jacuzzi won his fight, Brahim emerged victorious in the cage match, while musician Big Yasa defeated fellow musician Zeman.

The series has since combined boxing, music, comedy and social media culture to create a new entertainment attraction in Nairobi.

Following the second edition, podcaster Mariah called for a women’s version of the event, saying, “We need a women’s celebrity boxing edition.”

Organisers had also previously hinted at introducing female fights. Ahead of the second edition, Barak Jacuzzi said he wanted to include a female celebrity boxing category as the brand expanded.

If confirmed, the Ronoh-Kiguta matchup would fulfil those plans, giving female personalities a prominent place on the Celebrity Fight Nights card.

The proposed fight also comes amid growing interest in celebrity boxing in Kenya, with events such as Vurugu attracting attention.

In June 2026, Vurugu II at the Sarit Expo Centre saw Ugandan internet personality Shakib Cham defeat Kenyan singer Arrow Bwoy by technical knockout.
