Boxing returns to South Africa's Emperor’s Palace on June 26th headlined by Lodumo Lamati fighting for the vacant IBO junior featherweight world title. Lamati (17-0-1), from Mdantsane in the Eastern Cape, is up against the 12-1-1 Jose Martin Estrada Garcia from Mexico. Garcia, a former Mexican bantamweight champion, has won on the road before, outpointing Luis Lebron in Panama in 2020, a year in which he managed to see action twice. He is riding a nine-fight winning streak. Lamati, a recent sign up for promoter Rodney Berman's Golden Gloves, shook off the cobwebs after nearly two years of inactivity when he won a shutout decision over Said Mohamed Hassan last month.
