Krige v Spencer in boxing bout

Cape Town - Former Springbok captain Corné Krige is set to enter the boxing ring with former All Black flyhalf Carlos Spencer.

According to a SuperSport report, Krige will take on Spencer, current backline coach of the Lions, in a “friendly fight” in May this year.

The fight is one of several to take place in a box-and-dine tournament at the Sandton Convention Centre.

In the main fight, Nkullueko Mhlongo will defend his South African junior middleweight title against Bongani Mwelase.

Heavyweights Ruben Groenewald and Elviso Moyo are also expected to be in action.
