Former World Boxing Organization heavyweight champion Corrie Sanders (42-3, 31 KOs) returns to the ring after after a nine-month lay off when he goes up against South African Osborne Machimana (14-5-1, 10 KOs) on February 2nd at the Emperor’s Palace, in Kempton Park, Gauteng, South Africa. Sanders, now 42, figures to take out Machina, 29, in the first couple of rounds.
Machimana has faced only limited competition in his career, and the few times that he’s stepped up against decent B-level fighters, such as Shane Cameron, Albert Sosnowski and Livin Castillo, he’s been beaten handily. Machimana would do well to try his best to stay away from Sanders as much as possible, because if he gets hit by him it’s all over.
