South Africa: Musical Titans Don Their Gloves - Stillo Magollide Vs Big Zulu

Fans are in for a surprise as two music icons step into the square ring to settle their differences with a celebrity boxing match.

Brace yourselves for the epic showdown between Stillo Magollide and Big Zulu, scheduled for Tuesday, 23 May.

The shocking announcement came when Stillo Magollide took to Instagram on 19 May to share the news. "It's official! On 23 May, the fight is on! I and @Bigzulu_sa go at it in a surprise boxing match. Details coming soon."

While the location of the highly-anticipated fight is still a secret, the suspense surrounding this event has fans buzzing with excitement.

As the big day approaches, supporters are taking to social media to express their anticipation and placing their bets. @Jaymaticon on Twitter rallied behind Stillo, saying, "Yasho!!! Go show him kasi GS is making it, shock him bla wee 100!"

A concerned fan, @Bone_Rapper, asked if Stillo was ready.

"Ya Stiilo o sure mara?" he asked.

Some questions have emerged after Big Zulu's recent one-round, knock-out victory against Brian Dings on 23 April. The Uyajola 9/9 bouncer has since called for a rematch, alleging that the match was fixed.

Speaking to Sunday World, Brian revealed his unhappiness.

"Big Zulu is someone I respect very much but I don't feel the match was fair. I was told 10 minutes before the match that I was up next and I never got a chance to warm up. I asked the referee why he stopped the match, and he said I was dizzy so he stopped the fight."

Despite the doubts there is a lot of excitement surrounding the upcoming bout and both camps have confirmed that it will happen.

The industry players eagerly await this clash of the titans, as fans and spectators prepare for an electrifying night of music and boxing.
