 Hlatshwayo wins super bantamweight bout in South Africa

Sakhile Hlatshwayo TKO3 Arnel Lubisi... Sakhile Hlatshwayo won a super bantamweight bout against more-experienced Arnel Lubisi in dominant fashion on Sunday in Dundee, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Hlatshwayo (6-0 with 4 KOs) stepped up to the plate and more than delivered on expectations. He scored two knockdowns in the first round and ended the fight in round two, forcing referee Thokozani Ncube to step in and wave it off after sending Lubisi to the canvas a third time. Hlatshwayo has spent only sixteen months in the pro ranks. Lubisi, a pro since 2017, falls to 8-8 with 5 KOs. The fight was the main event of a card promoted by Hlula Boxing Promotions.
