Rumble At The Bay, Mhlungu vs. Pilane WBF Title Fight

June 29, 2023

Lebogang Pilane and Sanele Mhlungu will clash for the World Boxing Federation (WBF) International Light Flyweight title on July 8.

Jackie Brice Boxing Promotions returns with a card at the Indoor Centre in Mossel Bay, South Africa on July 8, featuring a World Boxing Federation (WBF) title bout.

Billed as “Rumble At The Bay”, compatriots Sanele Mhlungu and Lebogang “Gift” Pilane, a late substitute, will square off for the vacant International Light Flyweight title in the evenings main event.

Both boxers have been in the pro ranks for a while, since 2018 and 2015 respectively, but have suffered from inactivity in periods and will be looking to kick-start their careers with an impressive victory.

Mhlungu brings a 4-1-2 (4) record to the table, and might have an advantage in power, while Pilane is 4-5 (2) but the more experienced of the two.

Pilane´s record is deceiving, and as a former Free State champion at Flyweight he knows he has what it takes to win at the championship level.

Mhlungu must be considered a solid favourite though, and is coming off a solid knockout victory in April and will be aiming to do the same to Pilane.
