Spectators react as they watch a fist fight during the Musangwe at Gaba Village in Limpopo province
Spectators react as they watch a fist fight during the Musangwe, an age old tradition where men and boys display their fighting skills, at Gaba Village in Limpopo province December 22, 2011. The annual Venda fist-fighting run by community leaders, attracts hundreds of men who engaged in several weeks of bare-knuckled amateur fights in front of screaming audiences in the area. The sport, which began three centuries ago among young bored farmhands of the Venda tribe, attracts scores of spectators who often walk miles to cheer their favourites under the searing summer sun.
