Zodwa Wabantu on the ultimatum of choosing ancestors over fame and popularity, responds to trolls

“What inspired me to participate in this upcoming show with Zodwa is the shortage of women in boxing. This is about the rise of female boxers. Mpumalanga only had three female boxers and this year they have zero. The country actually has less than ten female boxers. So this is about raising awareness and encouraging females to start boxing again.

"What I hope to achieve is to get the message out there. I pray that it’s received and it will get women back into boxing. My role and Zodwa’s role in the fight on Sunday is to get the brave ones to step up, and represent the country. This is also a sport that requires a lot of training and technique. I pray it works."
