Compatriots Bonginkosi Nhlapo and
Nelson Mbhele will fight for the
vacant World Boxing Federation (WBF)
All Africa Light Heavyweight title
on June 7 at Event City in
Middelburg, South Africa.
After a difficult start to their pro
campaigns, this is a big opportunity
for both boxers to get their careers
on track by becoming WBF champion.
Nhlapo is 3-2-1 (1) since turning
pro in 2023, but both his defeats
were disputed split decisions and
could easily have gone his way.
Mbhele, a pro since 2021, brings a
5-4 (2) ledger and will also be
hungry and determined to show that
he is better than those statistics
suggest.
While not a clash of promising
prospects on paper, this should be a
very entertaining match-up between
two boxers who are ready to put
everything on the line to prevail.
