Revision as of 07:38, 3 October 2007
Phillip Ndou (born May 4, 1977 in Thohoyandou, South Africa) was a boxer. He had an excellent knockout percentage, with a record of 31-3 (30 KOs). He was forced into early retirement when he collapsed after a loss to Isaac Hlatshwayo. A brain scan revealed an abnormality that would endanger Ndou's health if he continued to box.
Ndou never won a major world title, but he won many minor title fights at featherweight and super featherweight. His most notable fight was an entertaining seven-round bout against WBC lightweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. on November 1, 2003.
Coincidentally, Ndou had competed in the same featherweight boxing tournament as Mayweather at the 1996 Summer Olympics. Ndou lost in the second round to the eventual gold medalist, Kamsing Somluck of Thailand.
