(JUNE 29) wo World Boxing Federation (WBF) championship fights will headline at the Steve Tshwete Banquet Hall in Middelburg, South Africa on Friday July 8.

In a fight for the vacant WBF Womens World Super Bantamweight title, Matshidiso Mokebisi fights undefeated Katie Healey from England.

Former WBF International Bantamweight and Super Bantamweight champion Mokebisi enters the fight at 15-9-1 (5), and has a clear advantage in experience over Healey, 4-0 (0), who takes part in her first title fight but is considered a major talent.
