Jesus Kibunde Kakonge (born 25 December 1979) is a Congolese former professional boxer who competed from 2004 to 2016. As an amateur, he won a gold medal at the 1999 All-Africa Games, one of his country's only two gold medals at the African Games since its name change from Zaire in 1997. He was made winner in the semi-final after his opponent tested positive for drugs, and his opponent in the final got sick with the flu and dropped out, leaving him the gold.[2][3][4][5]
