Former world champion in action at a boxing tournament in Pretoria
Boxing is back in Pretoria with Saturday night’s ‘Battle of the Giants 6’, which will take place at the Parkview Mall in the east of the city.
The ‘Battle of the Warriors 6’ boxing tournament was launched in Pretoria this past weekend.
After a drought of more than a year due to the Covid crisis, there will be boxing action again in Pretoria this coming weekend, when 5th Element Promotions’ sixth Battle of the Warriors tournament will be presented.
Although the first five tournaments in the Battle of the Warriors series have been hosted at the Sun Arena in Menlyn Maine, the sixth tournament, which takes place this coming Saturday (September 18) will move to the new The Metropolis venue in the Parkview Shopping Center in the East of Pretoria.
A solid fight card with seven exciting fights was launched by the promoters this past weekend.
The biggest excitement among boxing fans in connection with this tournament is the return of Tommy “Tommy Gun” Oosthuizen to the ring, after an absence of two and a half years.
The 33-year-old Oosthuizen is the former holder of one junior and three senior world titles and for many years he was regarded as South Africa’s most talented boxer.
