Seeing the photo/report of Nkuhuma with scratches from his recent fight with PCM I felt inspired to go against the narrative that he absolutely doesn't fight and left Nhenha to die without trading a single blow.
I think everybody here remembers the report that he lost his mane around his ear in the clash against the PCM when Nhenha was injured, but it was also reported by rangerstu24 that despite not having serious damage, NK had a few scratches from the fight:

Mane lost around his ear + scratches, he definitely, 100% saw combat, they fought 2v2 and maybe Nhenha would have taken a worse beating had he been alone during the entire fight, who knows.
If their bond was stronger and NK had had time to build his confidence as a dominant male I bet they'd have had put a better fight.
Even if Nhenha is truly done, NK still has chances of finding another partner and build his confidence levels, they were clashing with a much stronger coalition but unlike what some were saying NK did engage them ( at least twice by now, one with Nhenha and one alone ) and lived to tell the tale, he is a good fighter, only lacks confidence.
