Lights go out on boxing show in South Africa

Ayanda Mthembu NC Snamiso Ntuli ... On Sunday in Ulundi, South Africa, middleweight Ayanda Mthembu´s defense against Snamiso Ntuli was declared a no contest in the third round. Due to [electricity] load shedding in South Africa, the lights in the venue went on and off continuously during this bout, making things impossible for the boxers, and in round three it was decided that enough was enough. A rematch is possible next year. The WBF double-header was promoted by Ludonga Boxing Promotions.
 
Sabelo Cebekhulu TKO2 Mawande Matroos... Before the lights went out, bantamweight Sabelo Cebekhulu had little trouble dismantling countryman Mawande Matroos on the same card in Ulundi, South Africa. Cebekhulu (5-0) floored Matroos three times before referee Elroy Marshall called a halt to the bout in the second round. Cebekhulu was fighting for the first time this year. Matroos drops to 5-5-1 (2).
