South Africa's Lerena wins title

Kevin Lerena gave South African boxing the boost it desperately needed, with a fourth-round stoppage of Romanian Bogdan Dinu at Emperor's Palace in March.

This saw Lerena clinch the vacant WBA Inter-continental heavyweight championship, becoming the first South African heavyweight title winner since the late Corrie Sanders.

Sanders won the title after he defeated Wladimir Klitschko for the WBO heavyweight belt in 2003, Sports Brief reported.
