June 7th show planned for Middleburg, SA

Two South African light heavyweights, Bonginkosi Nhlapo and Nelson Mbhele, will battle each other on June 7th at Event City in Middelburg, South Africa. After a difficult start to their pro campaigns, this is a big opportunity for both boxers to get their careers on track. Nhlapo is 3-2-1 since turning pro in 2023, but both his defeats were disputed split decisions and could easily have gone his way. Mbhele, a pro since 2021, brings a 5-4 ledger and will also be hungry and determined to show that he is better than those statistics suggest. While not a clash of promising prospects on paper, this should be a very entertaining match-up between two boxers who are ready to put everything on the line to prevail.
