New York, NY/ Gauteng, SA (11/10/12) - Earlier tonight, 24-year-old red-hot undefeated super middleweight contender Thomas "Tommy Gun" Oosthuizen (21-0-1, 13KO's) retained his IBO super middleweight championship with a dominate twelve round unanimous decision over four-time world title challenger Fulgencio Zuniga (25-6-1, 22KO's) at the Emperor's Palace in Gauteng, South Africa.

Oosthuizen, who is promoted by Rodney Berman's Golden Gloves and DiBella Entertainment, dominated the action throughout, seemingly having his way with the much more experienced Zuniga, winning by scores of 120-108, 119-109, 119-109. Oosthuizen is expected to return action stateside sometime in early 2013.
