Pound 4 Pound is a South African television drama series that explores the high-stakes world of women's boxing in Africa, following themes of resilience, empowerment and the pursuit of greatness.
The series follows Lindiwe Mkhwanazi (played by Enhle Mbali), a passionate advocate for women's boxing and the COO of the South African Boxing Federation.
Lindiwe finds herself in hot water after prematurely registering an all-women's team for the Africa Unite Boxing Championship in Lagos, Nigeria.
To get the team ready, she recruits a washed-up former boxing champion, Dingaan "Tiger" Nkosi (Mduduzi Mabaso), to train the amateur women boxers.
Most of these women have never boxed before, but see an opportunity in joining the team.
Their journey unfolds a narrative that mirrors the real-life challenges and victories of everyday women.
It's a story about underdogs rising to greatness and women breaking barriers in male-dominated fields.
The series stars Enhle Mbali, Mduduzi Mabaso, Gabisile Tshabalala, Kealeboga Masango, Kwanele Mthethwa, Nicole Bessick, Sne Mbatha, Zolisa Xaluva and Brandon Auret.
Pound 4 Pound is produced by Bakwena Productions.
