Boxing is a funny sport that has no boundaries in terms of match-ups. It can easily pit blood brothers and sisters against each other.
This will be the case on Saturday when cousins Bryan Thysse and Gerhard Thysse battle it out for the SA light heavyweight belt in the Golden Gloves tournament at Emperors Palace.
Trained by Damien Durandt and Andson Kazembe, 28-year-old Bryan is the defending champion, while Gerhard, 32, whose skills are honed by Danie du Preez and Gert Strydom, is the No 1 contender for that belt.
