The Silence "African Spice" Mabuza Express

Silence returns to the ring next week!

It's on the undercard of Vusi Malinga vs. Michael Domingo (in a bantamweight IBF title eliminator).

Honestly, the best thing for Silence would be to take the winner of that fight (probably his countryman Malinga, which could be a big domestic fight in SA) as a steppingstone to get back in the title hunt himself, but if it's an eliminator that means Malinga will be waiting in the pen to be slaughtered by the winner of Showtime's tournament (presuming all organizations' belts will be on the line in its finals).

Mabuza is a worthier contender than Malinga IMO, and performed quite well in his loss to Perez (who could very well turn up winning the aforementioned tournament).

The good news is that he hasn't given up hope and called it quits just yet (and based on his last effort, there's no need to - at least physically)! :bbb
