Argentine boxer Diego Alberto ‘El Profeta’ Ruiz arrived in Gqeberha, Eastern Cape, on Wednesday ahead of his fight against Thato ‘Captain Charisma’ Bonokoane on Sunday.
Ruiz and Bonokoane are going to clash in a World Boxing Federation (WBF) junior-featherweight title fight promoted by J4Joy Promotions at the Feathermarket Theatre.
The 28-year-old Ruiz from Las Talitas in Tucuman, Argentina, will go into this battle on the back of a loss to Jack Bateson in June.
On the other hand, Bonokoane defeated Filipino boxer Jhaleel Payao in his last fight held in Middelburg, Mpumalanga, three months ago.
Meanwhile, Matshidiso Mokebisi from Kroonstad in the Free State is going to defend her South African female junior-featherweight title against Kirkwood’s Monalisa Takane in the main supporting bout.
