The Orient Theatre was stunned into silence as Azinga Fuzile suffered an eighth round knockout to Shavkat Rakhimov in a IBF world lightweight title elimination bout in East London on Sunday. Controversy reigned after a video footage surfed showing Rakhimov’s camp putting what looked like a banned substance called “Smelling Salts”. 

We spoke to Azinga’s trainer Colin Nathan and Rumble Africa Promotions CEO Nomfesane Nyathela after they lodged a complaint with the IBF. We also spoke to Boxing SA CEO Tsholo Lejaka on their protest.

We also spoke to Emmanuel Mutavhatsindi on the upcoming tournament in Malamulele in Giyani.
