Zambian boxer Simon ‘Hitman’ Ngoma sent the The Galleria Events Venue, Sandton, Johannesburg into silence on Saturday evening.
This was after Ngoma stunned favourite Kaine Fourie with a first round stoppage in an international lightweight bout. Ngoma came straight for Fourie immediately after the first gong and he decked him twice in the same round.
That was the first time that the highly-rated Fourie was stopped and it’s also the first time that he lost a fight.
Meanwhile, after being inactive for more than two years, former South African junior-featherweight champion Ayabonga ‘Jay Jay’ Sonjica finally got some action as he defeated Thato Bonokoane on points
On the other hand, Bernice Ferreira kept her unbeaten record after she beat veteran boxer Bukiwe Nonina by a unanimous decision in a six rounds bout.
