October 1, 2017

World Boxing Federation (WBF) Boxer Of The Month for September 2017: Women's World Featherweight Champion Unathi Myekeni.

A former World Boxing Federation (WBF) World Champion at Super Bantamweight (2010), Unathi Myekeni became a two-weight World Champion on September 8 when she captured the vacant WBF crown at Featherweight.

In a rematch staged in Cape Town, Myekeni redeemed herself and beat WBF International Champion Asandiswa Nxokwana by clear unanimous decision, having lost their first encounter by ninth round stoppage last March.

Nicknamed “Showtime”, the South African improved her professional record to 11-4-1 (5), and is the WBF Boxer Of The Month for September 2017.
