Botswana to host November 27th show

Two Botswana rivals will rumble in a super bantamweight main event on Friday, November 27th. Tshepang Babui (7-3-2) vs. Onkarabile Mothibedi (5-2) will headline a show promoted by Scud Missile Promotions at the Grand Palm in the country's capital of Gaborone. With a minor WBF title ast stake, the winner will be the first champion boxer of of any kind to be held in Botswana, a 54 year-old nation just to the north of South Africa.  Babui lost a decision to South African Tholomusa Ngema, also in Gaborone, in May 2019. A slight underdog, Mothibedi knows his opponent well, having been his sparring partner for the Ngema fight last year. The card, which will also feature five undercard bouts, will be broadcast live by Botswana Television (BTV).
