Enathi "Hired Gun" Stelle is ready and raring to make a comeback on Sunday at Orient Theatre, according to his manager Andile "Black Buffalo" Mshumpela.
Stelle last fought on December 16 when he was floored by Phumelela "The Truth" Cafu in East London. With that quick win, Cafu was crowned as the SA junior-bantamweight champion.
Stelle, from Mdantsane, will take on Mbulelo Gabula over six rounds. Their bout and 11 others will be staged by promoter Mzi Booi whose Kay B Promotion will make its debut in the boxing space.
The whole tournament – dubbed "Fist Frenzy at the Mecca of Boxing" – will be streamed live by Arena Holdings' Viva Nation TV.
Said Mshumpela: "Enathi has fully recovered from the knockdown by Cafu. After that fight, he was frustrated by how he lost; he was not okay at all.
