Wiki For Boxing is a project under Wiki Soccer which has been introduced in Uganda this year to mainly document content related to boxing activities in order to bridge gap of information from boxing since early 1960s considering the fact that it was first sport after Uganda's independence in 1962 leaving players and main actors having no Wikipedia presence.
