Confidence in someone outperforming the other can be proven in more ways than one. But successful boxing trainer Damien Durandt has instead challenged Marco Luis to put his money where his mouth is.

Durandt took upcoming boxing manager Luis on a R10,000 bet that his charge, Brandon Thysse, will retain his WBA Pan African junior middleweight belt against Luis’ boxer, Roarke Knapp, on December 4.

But his name does not appear in the top 15 of that sanctioning body’s junior middleweight ratings. It should have been a guarantee when he won that belt in October last year after knocking out Boyd Allen in three rounds. The tournament will feature future stars like newly crowned SA junior middleweight champion Shervontaigh Koopman, Ricardo Malajika and Sabelo Ngebinyana.
