‘My money’s on Khanyi Mbau’: SA reacts to Zodwa Wabantu’s boxing match
Fans of Khanyi Mbau believe she will win the next celebrity boxing bout at the Ridge Hotel in Mpumalanga against influencer Zodwa Rebecca Libram, aka Zodwa Wabantu.
Sowetan confirmed on Tuesday, October 3, that reality TV stars Khanyi Mbau and Zodwa Wabantu will face off on Sunday, October 22.
Promoter Arnold “Squire” Nododile expects a big attendance due to the massive following Mbau and Wabantu have on social media.
Expectations are that the ladies bout could even be the biggest such bout to date. It is publicly known that the two ladies have always had a strange relationship, especially after it came out that they had once shared a man (Mandla Mthembu) who was married to Mbau.
They allegedly have children by the same man. “I expect a big attendance due to the massive following they have,” said Nododile.
In the professional boxing space there will be two-titles on the take. Current SA junior featherweight champion Matshidiso Mokatsane against Monalisa Takane will meet for the second time since their fight last year was declared a draw and Mokatsane retained her national belt by virtue of being the champion.
