South African boxing star, Thulani “Thulz” Mbenge added another title to his list of achievements on Saturday evening, June 23 when he knocked out Diego Gabriel Chaves of Argentina in the headline bout of the “Bombs Away” Box and Dine Tournament at Emperors Palace to take home the vacant IBO Welterweight world title. Here the Eastern Cape boxer is pictured with Peermont CEO, Nigel Atherton who was in the ring after the fight to present the new champion with his belt. This victory comes only three months after he (Mbenge) won the vacant WBC International Welterweight title, also at the Palace of Dreams.
