The giant boxing promoting company will now instead present the Silver Salvo tournament on August 9 at the same venue, which will be headlined by a 12-round WBC light-heavyweight clash between Ryno Liebenberg and Russia’s Denis Grachev.
The Advertiser understands that the main reason behind the cancellation of the Super Six event was the imminent withdrawal of Tommy Oosthuizen, whose fight would have been the main drawcard.
Reasons behind the undefeated southpaw boxer’s withdrawal are unclear.
Other boxers who were to have fought in the tournament, included Johnny Muller, Liebenberg, Grachev, Argentine boxer Roberto Bolonti and Namibia’s Wibeforce Shihepo. – @SabeloBoksburg
