Ice Arena Wales, Cardiff, Wales - WBO lightweight champion Terry Flanagan (31-0, 12KOs) won a twelve round unanimous decision over two-time former world champion Mzonke Fana (38-10-2, 16KOs).
Four years after Mzonke Fana was brutally defeated by upstart Sipho Taliwe- a loss which was then believed to have ended his career- he is back fighting for a major world title when he challenges Englishman Terry Flanagan for the WBO lightweight crown at Ice Arena in Cardiff, Wales on Saturday.
Manchester’s Terry “Turbo” Flanagan (30-0, 12 KOs) meets South Africa’s Mzonke Fana (38-9, 16 early) at the Manchester Arena on July 9 in the third defense of the WBO lightweight title that he won in July of last year. The bout will serve as the chief support to the World heavyweight championship rematch between defending divisional king Tyson Fury and former ruler Wladimir Klitschko. “It doesn’t get any bigger than fighting as chief support and right before the lineal heavyweight championship of the world,” said Flanagan.
