Mnisi’s suspension a blow to Mpumalanga boxing: Not only has the progress of boxing in Mpumalanga been suppressed by the suspension of Jacob Mnisi’s promoter’s licence, but the Boxing SA decision has also affected its provincial manager in that province,…
There were allegations that a foreign female boxer slept on a bench in a hotel foyer for a few nights because the accommodation had not been paid by the promoter until Boxing SA intervened.
It can, however, be confirmed that Mnisi paid 100% the agreed purse monies to all local boxers when the contract stipulates that in such a situation only 10% of the agreed purse must be paid. One of the conditions of Mnisi’s suspension is that he must not organise or attempt to organise any activity involving professional boxing or boxers. That is exactly what kills Lubisi.• Meanwhile, former boxing trainer, matchmaker and promoter Zekiel “Ziggy” Mtshali has passed on, his brother Dr Jabulani Mtshali told Sowetan yesterday.
“I received the message this morning [Sunday] from his son that Zakes has passed on. I saw him was last week. He was admitted at Garden City Hospital, where he underwent an operation on his spine. “He looked okay but his son called me this morning to inform me that he passed on,” he said, adding that more details would be shared in due course.
