The Mother City did not always hold sweet memories for Renette, and it was through that experience that angled her toward the sport she loves so much today. “I would love more of us ladies getting involved in combat sport. Just knowing that you are strong enough, or even smart enough to throw a punch, adds an extra skip in your step … and believe me, girls can punch!

“It was by far the best fight I've had and I enjoyed having an opponent with that much experience and skill! I won the fight by unanimous decision.”“I am currently a part-time junior accountant and I'm studying towards my chartered accountant qualification at UCT. I am doing my Post Graduate Diploma in Accounting this year,” says the fighter.

The show - which is set to kick off in October - has been welcomed by many combat sportsmen and women across South Africa especially due to the fact that it could boost the combat sport arena by giving fighters new forms of revenue and opportunities.For Renette, she is purely excited by some of the names that have been involved in the show thus far. is part of it and I think he is hilarious! I would most definitely watch it.
