Thomas Oosthuizen is one of the most popular and richest Boxer who was born on April 2, 1988 in Gauteng, South Africa. Thomas Oosthuizen (/ˈ w ɛ s t h aɪ z ən / WEST -hye-zən; born 2 April 1988) is a South African professional boxer. He is a former IBO world champion in two weight classes, having held the super-middleweight title from 2011 to 2014, and the light- heavyweight title in 2015.

After two seemingly lackluster performances (a draw with Brandon Gonzáles and split decision victory over Ezequiel Maderna), a motorcycle injury forced Oosthuizen to withdraw from a scheduled bout fight with Eleider Alvarez. He was subsequently released by his promoter Rodney Berman, who cited the fact that Oosthuizen was at least 13 pounds over the 175 lb. limit for the bout; stating, “He’s had so many chances and blown every one”. Following a brief stint in rehabilitation, Oosthuizen was able to mend ties with his promoter in an attempt to move forward with his boxing career. He vacated his IBO Super Middleweight Title on April 21, 2014.
