Death continues to stalk boxing as KwaZulu-Natal promoter Thulani Magudulela of Ludonga Boxing Promotions died from COVID-19 complications on Monday night. He was 58.
Magudulela’s son Zwi confirmed that his father passed away around 10pm on Monday.
“He tested positive on Thursday and had not been well since,” Zwi said on Tuesday.
Magudulela’s death follows days after Eastern Cape promoter and former trainer Mzimasi ‘Bro Mzi’ Mnguni passed away at an East London hospital last Saturday.
Just this past Sunday, Magudulela had a tournament cancelled in Kwa-Nongoma, KwaZulu-Natal. The tournament was sadly cancelled at the eleventh hour after it was reported that some of the boxers, who were due to fight had tested positive to COVID-19.
