WBF President and friend of
Dlamini, Howard Goldberg
expressed his shock and sadness
at Dlamini's passing saying:
“Dlamini was a fantastic person
and a brilliant boxer destined
for great things. He must be
remembered for the good person
he was, as well as all the good

game. He thrilled and
entertained fans with his
greatness and he will never be
forgotten."
"It certainly has been a
privilege for me to have known
Mlungisi and to have watched his
fantastic skills in action. I
wish to convey my personal as
well as the WBFed's deepest
condolences to the family.” |
