It was strange to see that in the ring, clear something was wrong. Sad they couldn't save him. RIP young man.

Damn, RIP. These fighters risks their lives for the sport we all love.

[STREET CLEANER]

I hate to hear about this. RIP

horrible situation, I was hoping the stoppage was early enough to not be a severe problem. Rest in peace Simiso.

boxing isnt a game RIP

After watching the clip a few times it's sad but somehow uplifting. He truly fought until the dying end. You hear people say it but actually seeing it done is another thing. RIP to a true fighter.

What's all the more absurd, Buthelezi had just knocked his opponent down. And the latter idiotically jumps in joy when the referee stops the fight, rather than understanding that something is seriously wrong.
