Nickname: "Binwa" Sande battles Colorado's undefeated Earl "The New Generation" Jackson    After winning the bronze medal at the 1988 olympic games Kenya native Chris Sande moved to the United States and began hir professional boxing career.    October 10, 1989 was the night of his first pro fight which he won via 4 round unanimous decision over John Tunstall at Bally's in Las Vegas, Nevada. Sande battles James Patterson.    After 3 more wins, Sande at 4-0 was pitted against another unbeaten prospect in 5-0 Willie Kemp of New York.  It was a good fight that ended in a split decision win for Sande, that win moved his record to 5-0.    Two more nice wins for Sande (7-0) found him in another face-off with a fellow undefeated prospect. This time it was South Carolina's Lamar "Kidfire" Parks who was 9-0 with 8 by knockout. It was a very interesting battle, but the pure power of Parks was too much and Sande tasted his first profession...
