The Super International Bantamweight title will be on the line as the two boxers take to the ring in an eight-round contest. The battle between the two boxers will be the main bout for the third edition of the Boxing Fight Night Championship organised by Bond Boxing Promotions. Mpolokeng has been in seven fights picking one knockout, one loss, and five wins. His opponent has one win from the only match that he competed in last year. Mpolokeng is motivated after winning his last fight against South African boxer, Mandla Simanga, in October 2023. “The preparations for the bout have been good. I cannot complain. I have been in a training camp for the past eight weeks. I am looking forward to an interesting contest because I have never fought Kupani before. It is also an honour for me to be in the main bout,” he said.
Mpolokeng said he expects an easy fight because he has watched videos of his opponent and knows how to prepare. Another interesting contest will be between local boxer, Mmusi Tswiigi and Thembani Mhlanga from South Africa in the International Middleweight. Tswiigi goes into the bout with the wind on his sail after picking a win on his professional debut, where he beat South African boxer, Semphiwe Ntombela, in the welterweight division last year. Tswiigi told MmegiSport that he was ready for the bout and preparations had been going according to plan. “I am looking forward to tonight's fight with confidence. If I get a chance I am going for a knockout (KO) because that will beef up my profile in this sport. I started professional boxing last year. It has been going well but sponsorship is a challenge, which leads to a shortage of events in the country,” he said.
