Halfan Hythani Hamza (born March 15, 1995) known by the ring names Hassan Mwakinyo and Tornado is a Tanzanian professional boxer.[1] He held the WBF Intercontinental[2] light-middleweight title twice in 2020 until he was stripped from the title.[3][4] He previously held the UBO International super light-middleweight title in 2018.[5]

Professional career

[edit]

Mwakinyo made his professional boxing debut[6] at the age of 20 against Alibaba R Tarimo[7] on November 29, 2015. He has since recorded a total of 23 fights in which he won 20 fights and lost 3, without a draw. He has won several titles including;

  • Tanzania super welterweight in 2016,
  • East and Central Africa super welterweight in 2017
  • WBA Pan Africa super welterweight in 2017
  • UBO International super welterweight title in 2018[8]
  • WBF Intercontinental super welterweight in 2020
  • ABU[9] super welterweight title in 2021.[10]

In 2022, Mwakinyo was banned by the British Boxing Board of Control (BBBC) two weeks after a defeat [11] from the British Boxer Liam Smith[12][13] without disclosing the reason behind banning of the Tanzanian boxer.
