Gcina “Double G” Makhoba, the World
Boxing Federation (WBF)
International Super Flyweight
champion, will defend his title for
the second time on October 2 in
Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal,
South Africa.
His opponent will be the same man he
won the vacant title against back in
February of 2020, Musawenkosi
Ndwanwe, when an accidental head-but
ended the fight after five rounds
and Makhoba was awarded a technical
decision.
Makhoba, 7-1 (2), has since then
defended his belt with an impressive
stoppage of another compatriot in
Thulani Gumede, and a stayed busy
with a non-title victory over Enathi
Stella.
Ndwandwe brings a modest 7-4 (2)
record to the dance and must be
considered the underdog, but with
both men residing in the
KwaZulu-Natal region there will be
plenty of local pride on the line
and no shortage of motivation to put
on a great effort and upset the
apple-cart.
Makhoba vs. Ndwandwe will headline a
show promoted by Nomwela Shezi.
